Bauhaus imaginista: a school in the world

Abstract

"From its inception in 1919, the Bauhaus was a truly international institution. Students and teachers travelled from as far afield as the United States and Japan to be part of a school whose curriculum was shaped by such diverse influences as constructivism and Eastern spirituality. Featuring contributions from artists, art historians, cultural theorists and others, bauhaus imaginista takes a rare and fascinating look at the legacy of the Bauhaus from a global perspective, arguing that, through its reach and reception across the world, it has played a key role in reimagining the relationship between art and society."
