Diseñando una época
La escuela artística más famosa de la modernidad
Durante un fugaz periodo de catorce años intercalado entre dos guerras mundiales, la escuela de arte y diseño alemana Bauhaus cambió el aspecto de la modernidad. Con ideales utópicos para el futuro, la escuela fue pionera en la funsión del arte, la artesanía y la tecnología aplicada a la pintura, la escultura, el diseño, la arquitectura, el cine, la fotografía, los tejidos, la cerámica, el teatro y la instalación artística. Este libro es un homenaje al atrevimiento e innovación del movimiento Bauhaus, pionero en el desarrollo del arte moderno y paradigma de la educación artística, en el que una total libertad de expresión creativa y de ideas vanguardistas dio lugar a creaciones hermosas y prácticas.
