- BAUHAUS, the ZEITSCHRIFT FUER BAU UND GESTALTUNG, is considered one of the most important sources for the history of the Bauhaus school of design during its Dessau phase. The articles in this facsimile reprint illuminate the full range of Bauhaus activity, from preparatory courses to workshops, from design to painting, from the crafts to architecture. A wealth of authentic illustrations document the school's achievements and its role in the dramatic changes in this century's conception of art and its function in society. Typographically integrated text and pictures present the contributions of Josef Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Hannes Meyer, Oskar Schlemmer, Hans Wittwer, and others.
