BIOGRAPHY

Walter Gropius in front of his plans for the Törtensettlement Dessau, 1927

The Bauhaus School was founded in Weimar in 1919 by Walter Gropius. His goal was to improve Germany's industrial design. Joined by him were artists that came out of movements like Constructivism and Dadaism. Some of the main teachers included Josef Albers, Paul Klee, Wassily Kadinsky, Herbert Bayer, Joost Schmidt, and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy. One objective of the school was to reunite arts and crafts and another was to create functional design. The Bauhaus school was moved to Dessau in 1925 and finally to Berlin in 1930. The school was closed in1933 by the Nazis.
