"Art and technology: a new unity" - It was with this slogan that
the Bauhaus moved to Dessau in 1925. The seven years in Dessau were
most productive for the designers and architects at the Bauhaus.
This illustrated volume presents the Bauhaus buildings in Dessau in
words and pictures and offers new perspectives on these icons of
modern architecture. Walter Gropius, Hannes Meyer, Ludwig Mies van
der Rohe, Richard Paulick, Georg Muche, Carl Fieger and Karl
Friedrich Engemann: the architects at the Bauhaus in Dessau
realized their designs in the industrial city between the Elbe and
the Mulde rivers during the years between 1925 and 1932 and thereby
created a unique ensemble of modern architecture which attracts
visitors from all over the world to Dessau to this day. Since 1996
some of the Bauhaus buildings in Dessau have been regarded as key
works of European Modernism and are included in the list of UNESCO
World Cultural Heritage Sites. They express the revolutionary aim
of the historical Bauhaus to bring about fundamental change in
society through design and architecture.
