Architecture; History of architecture

"""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."
