Abstract

Zum Gründungsjubiläum des Bauhauses in Weimar wird die hundertjährige Ausstellungsgeschichte dieser weltweit bekanntesten Kunst-, Design- und Architekturschule beleuchtet. Den Künstlerinnen und Künstlern des Bauhauses war die öffentlichkeitswirksame Präsentation ihrer Werke stets ein zentrales Anliegen. Bereits die erste große Bauhaus-Ausstellung im Jahr 1923 führte das gesamte Leistungsspektrum der noch jungen Hochschule für Kunst, Architektur und Gestaltung vor Augen. Fortan galt das Bauhaus als Labor und Werkstatt moderner Lebensgestaltung. Diese progressive Ausrichtung zu unterstreichen, setzte sich vor allem die 1938 vom Museum of Modern Art in New York verantwortete Bauhaus-Schau zum Ziel und prägte damit das internationale Image der in Weimar gegründeten Institution. Bis heute gilt das Bauhaus als Inbegriff eines sachlich-funktionalen und auf gesellschaftliche Veränderungen zielenden Designs. Zum hundertjährigen Gründungsjubiläum des Bauhauses rekonstruiert das wissenschaftliche Jahrbuch der Klassik Stiftung die dynamische Rezeptionsgeschichte dieser Institution im Spiegel ihrer Ausstellungen und beleuchtet dabei sowohl die von den Bauhaus-Künstlern selbst verantworteten Präsentationen ab 1923 als auch die retrospektiven Schauen seit dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Ein besonderes Augenmerk gilt jenen Ausstellungen, die seit den 1930er Jahren im Ausland gezeigt wurden, sowie aktuellen Präsentationen, die das Gründungsprogramm des Bauhauses wieder aufleben lassen und dessen Vermächtnis im Lichte heutiger Fragestellungen neu perspektivieren.

Abstract

The year 2019 marks the centenary of the founding of the Bauhaus, arguably the most influential school of art and design in the modern era. Commemorative activities will focus on its culture-historical significance, with scant attention being paid to a more fundamental question: the ramifications on legal and political thinking caused by the deep-seated transformation of the material world during the so-called age of extremes. Daniel Damler reveals the finely woven fabric of material and intellectual culture, using the example of New Objectivity to show how radical changes in the design and material vocabulary of objects generate new political and legal paradigms. It was contemporaries of the Bauhaus revolution who began to apply aesthetic maxims such as 'functionality' and 'clarity' to the state and political thought. Our present-day demands for the 'transparency' of governments and parliaments (without really knowing what we even mean by this) are very much a part of this tradition. After the watershed of 1914, the 'virtues' associated with glass, steel and functional forms served as a surrogate for the lost ideological consensus in the fragmented societies of modernity. Examining the works of prominent twentieth-century legal scholars, Damler discovers a remarkable intertwining of the material and the intellectual, while offering new insights into the proto-legal spaces of imagination of leading architects such as Le Corbusier and Bruno Taut. Bauhaus Laws offers an extraordinary and timeless look at the shadow empire of legal aesthetics. His plea to take seriously the internal dynamics of concepts and figures of thought borrowed from material culture is addressed to legal scholars, political scientists and anthropologists, as well as to architects and designers. It is also aimed at readers who believe in political self-determination and the autonomy of the legal system.

Abstract

"What would keep the Bauhaus up at night if it were practicing today? A century after its founding by Walter Gropius in Weimar, Germany, as an 'experimental laboratory of the future,' who are the pioneering experimentalists who reinscribe or resist Bauhaus traditions? This book explores the varied legacies, influences, and futures of the Bauhaus. Many of the animating issues of the Bauhaus--its integration of research, teaching, and practice; its experimentation with materials; its democratization of design; its open-minded, heterogeneous approach to ideas, theories, methods, and styles--remain relevant. The contributors to Bauhaus Futures address these but go further, considering issues that design has largely ignored for the last hundred years: gender, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and disability. Their contributions take the form of essays, photo-essays, interviews, manifestos, diagrams, and even a play. They discuss, among other things, the Bauhaus curriculum and its contemporary offshoots; Bauhaus legacies at the MIT Media Lab, Black Mountain College, and elsewhere; the conflict between the Bauhaus ideal of humanist universalism and current approaches to design concerned with race and justice; designed objects, from the iconic to the precarious; textile and weaving work by women in the Bauhaus and the present day; and design and technology."--
