Bauhaus Verbund 2019 Steubenstraße 15 99423 Weimar Weimar/Berlin, 8th March 2018 Today, the jury’s choices for the Grand Tour of Modernism will be presented today at ITB Berlin. Reviewing over 460 proposals, jury members have selected the sites that will complement the centenary programme as the Route of Modernism. What does Alfeld have in common with Berlin, Darmstadt, Dresden, Stuttgart and Bernau? The Grand Tour of Modernism. It will guide visitors along a specially conceived route, which can be explored by rail, car or bicycle, through the history of modernism from 1900 to 2000. The Grand Tour articulates an integrative approach to architecture – addressing facets that range from cultural history references and the use of new materials to the broader socio-political context. Through this approach, the Grand Tour of Modernism links travel with the joy of discovery and insights into the past and present. It spans individual buildings and housing estates: icons and controversial projects, key works of architecture and new discoveries. This Germany-wide project is also emblematic of close cooperation with organisations on the spot, as well as local tourism associations and the federal states’ marketing organisations; it has been made possible thanks to support from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM). An interactive website will offer visitors optimum guidance. A children’s book, maps and an overview publication will add the finishing touch, bringing modernist architecture to life. The Route’s interdisciplinary thrust is also reflected in the seven jury members selected, who have expertise in the built environment, cultural heritage preservation, Träger: architecture, journalism, cultural education and tourism.

Programme Contents A testing ground for experimentation and an incubator for ideas: the centenary year offers a whole host of events addressing architecture and design, art and cultural history, education and research. Highlights include the major inaugural festival in Berlin, the international research and exhibition project Bauhaus Imaginista, the Grand Tour of Modernism – a Modernism Route running right across Germany – as well as the Bauhaus Agents cultural education programme. Three wide-ranging central overview exhibitions in Dessau, Weimar and Berlin will be accompanied by numerous exhibition projects in eleven federal states. The three new museum buildings dedicated to the Bauhaus in Berlin (2022), Weimar (2019) and Dessau (2019) provide a solid foundation to carry this incubator for ideas into the future. The programme will encompass more than the Bauhaus and its history, offering interactions between positions and perspectives that also embrace conflicting stances. 3 of 4 Press release: 8th March 2018 A Selection of Sites on the Grand Tour of Modernism Baden-Württemberg - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Stuttgart, Weissenhof Estate - Karlsruhe, Schwarzwald Hall - Ulm, School of Design - Mannheim/Heilbronn, Dam on the Neckar (Architect Paul Bonatz) Bavaria - Amberg, Thomas Glass Works Berlin - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Berlin Modernist Housing Estates: Falkenberg Garden City (Treptow), Schillerpark Housing Estate (Wedding), Britz Large Housing Estate – Hufeisensiedlung (“Horseshoe Estate”) (Neukölln), Carl Legien Housing Estate (Prenzlauer Berg), Weiße Stadt (“White City”) Housing Estate (Reinickendorf), Siemensstadt Large Housing Estate (Charlottenburg and Spandau) - Bauhaus-Archiv/Museum für Gestaltung - Hansaviertel District (Interbau 1957) - Tempelhof Airport Brandenburg - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Bernau, ADGB Trade Union School - Cottbus, Diesel Power Station - Eisenhüttenstadt, WK 1-3 Residential Ensemble with the “Aktivist” Large- Scale Restaurant Bremen - Böttcherstraße Hamburg - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Chile House - Ohlsdorf Cemetery, Crematorium, Talstraße - Hamburg Temple Synagogue, Oberstraße Hesse - Darmstadt, Art Gallery - Frankfurt, Ernst May House and Römerstadt Housing Estate - Künzell (near Fulda), Loheland Women’s Colony Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania - Rostock-Warnemünde, Teepott Restaurant Lower Saxony - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Alfeld, Fagus Factory - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Goslar, Rammelsberg Mining Facilities - Celle, Buildings by Otto Haesler 4 of 4 Press release: 8th March 2018 North Rhine-Westphalia - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Essen, Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex - Duisburg, Lehmbruck Museum - Krefeld, Verseidag (United Silk Mills Corporation) Building Rhineland-Palatinate - Kindenheim, Kreutzenberger Winery - Ludwigshafen, Westend Housing Estate - Mainz, Luther Church Saarland - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Völklingen, Völklingen Ironworks Saxony - Chemnitz, Schocken Department Store - Dresden, German Museum of Hygiene - Leipzig, Grassi Museum - Löbau, Schminke House Saxony-Anhalt - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Dessau, Bauhaus Building, Complex of Masters' Houses, Houses with Balcony Access - Elbingerode, Neuvandsburg Deaconesses’ Centre - Magdeburg, Municipal Hall, Exhibition Grounds with Horse Gate, Observation Tower and Fountain - Magdeburg, Hermann Beims Housing Estate with Kindergarten Schleswig-Holstein - Lübeck, Holstentor Hall Thuringia - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Weimar, Model House “Am Horn”, Former Art School & Applied Art School - Gera, Schulenburg House - Probstzella, Haus des Volkes (“People’s House”) Ensemble .

    Bauhaus 1 Bauhaus

    Bauhaus 1 Bauhaus Staatliches Bauhaus, commonly known simply as Bauhaus, was a school in Germany that combined crafts and the fine arts, and was famous for the approach to design that it publicized and taught. It operated from 1919 to 1933. At that time the German term Bauhaus, literally "house of construction" stood for "School of Building". The Bauhaus school was founded by Walter Gropius in Weimar. In spite of its name, and the fact that its founder was an architect, the Bauhaus did not have an architecture department during the first years of its existence. Nonetheless it was founded with the idea of creating a The Bauhaus Dessau 'total' work of art in which all arts, including architecture would eventually be brought together. The Bauhaus style became one of the most influential currents in Modernist architecture and modern design.[1] The Bauhaus had a profound influence upon subsequent developments in art, architecture, graphic design, interior design, industrial design, and typography. The school existed in three German cities (Weimar from 1919 to 1925, Dessau from 1925 to 1932 and Berlin from 1932 to 1933), under three different architect-directors: Walter Gropius from 1919 to 1928, 1921/2, Walter Gropius's Expressionist Hannes Meyer from 1928 to 1930 and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe Monument to the March Dead from 1930 until 1933, when the school was closed by its own leadership under pressure from the Nazi regime. The changes of venue and leadership resulted in a constant shifting of focus, technique, instructors, and politics. For instance: the pottery shop was discontinued when the school moved from Weimar to Dessau, even though it had been an important revenue source; when Mies van der Rohe took over the school in 1930, he transformed it into a private school, and would not allow any supporters of Hannes Meyer to attend it.

    Hannes Meyer’s Scientific Worldview and Architectural Education at the Bauhaus (1927-1930) Hideo Tomita The Second Asian Conference of Design History and Theory —Design Education beyond Boundaries— ACDHT 2017 TOKYO 1-2 September 2017 Tsuda University Hannes Meyer’s Scientific Worldview and Architectural Education at the Bauhaus (1927-1930) Hideo Tomita Kyushu Sangyo University [email protected] 29 Abstract Although the Bauhaus’s second director, Hannes Meyer (1889-1954), as well as some of the graduates whom he taught, have been much discussed in previous literature, little is known about the architectural education that Meyer shaped during his tenure. He incorporated key concepts from biology, psychology, and sociology, and invited specialists from a wide variety of fields. The Bauhaus under Meyer was committed to what is considered a “scientific world- view,” and this study focuses on how Meyer incorporated this into his theory of architectural education. This study reveals the following points. First, Meyer and his students used sociology to design analytic architectural diagrams and spatial standardizations. Second, they used psy- chology to design spaces that enabled people to recognize a symbolized community, to grasp a social organization, and to help them relax their mind. Third, Meyer and his students used hu- man biology to decide which direction buildings should face and how large or small that rooms and windows should be. Finally, Meyer’s unified scientific worldview shared a similar theoreti- cal structure to the “unity of science” movement, established by the founding members of the Vienna Circle, at a conceptual level. Keywords: Bauhaus, Architectural Education, Sociology, Psychology, Biology, Unity of Science Hannes Meyer’s Scientific Worldview and Architectural Education at the Bauhaus (1927–1930) 30 The ACDHT Journal, No.2, 2017 Introduction In 1920s Germany, modernist architects began to incorporate biology, sociology, and psychol- ogy into their architectural theory based on the concept of “function” (Gropius, 1929; May, 1929).

During the 1920s, Berlin flourished as centre of modern culture. Yet this flourishing did not exist exclusively amongst the intellectual elites that occupied the city centre and affluent western suburbs. It also extended into the proletarian districts to the north and east of the city. Within these areas existed a complex urban landscape that was rich with cultural tradition and artistic expression. This thesis seeks to redress the bias towards the centre of Berlin and its recognised cultural currents, by exploring the art and architecture found in the city’s working-class districts.

    Forms, Ideals, and Methods. Bauhaus Transfers to Mandatory Palestine

    Ronny Schüler Forms, Ideals, and Methods. Bauhaus Transfers to Mandatory Palestine Introduction A “Bauhaus style” would be a setback to academic stagnation, into a state of inertia hostile to life, the combatting of which the Bauhaus was once founded. May the Bauhaus be saved from this death. Walter Gropius, 1930 The construction activities of the Jewish community in the British Mandate of Palestine represents a prominent paradigm for the spread of European avant-garde architecture. In the 1930s, there is likely no comparable example for the interaction of a similar variety of influences in such a confined space. The reception of architectural modernism – referred to as “Neues Bauen” in Germany – occurred in the context of a broad cultural transfer process, which had already begun in the wake of the waves of immigration (“Aliyot”) from Eu- rope at the end of the nineteenth century and had a formative effect within the emancipating Jewish community in Palestine (“Yishuv”). Among the growing number of immigrants who turned their backs on Europe with the rise of fas- cism and National Socialism were renowned intellectuals, artists, and archi- tects. They brought the knowledge and experience they had acquired in their 1 On the transfer process of modernity European homelands. In the opposite direction too, young people left to gain using the example of the British Mandate of Palestine, see. Heinze-Greenberg 2011; 1 professional knowledge, which was beneficial in their homeland. Dogramaci 2019; Stabenow/Schüler 2019. Despite the fact that, in the case of Palestine, the broad transfer processes were fueled by a number of sources and therefore represent the plurality of European architectural modernism, the Bauhaus is assigned outstanding 2 importance.

    Opens in a Cascade of Trapezoidal Shapes, Like Shards of Glass

    World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism Prize 2008 award to Brenne Gesellschaft von Architekten mbH For the restoration of the ADGB Trade Union School (1928–1930) Bernau, Germany designed by Hannes Meyer and Hans Wittwer 1 2 This restoration highlights and emphasizes a particular approach to historic preservation that is perhaps the most sensible and intellectually satisfying today. Brenne Gesellschaft von Architekten is probably Germany’s most engaged and thoughtful restorer of classic Modern architecture. —Dietrich NeumaNN, JUROR Pre-restoration During the period in which the ADGB building was under East German control, it was impossible to find appropriate glass for repairs, so the light-filled glass corridor was obscured by a wooden parapet. Brenne Gesellschaft von Architekten restored the original materials and reintroduced the original bright red color of the steel framing. 3 Many of the building’s steel casement windows are highly articulated. The glass in the external staircase opens in a cascade of trapezoidal shapes, like shards of glass. 4 Despite Modernism’s influential place in our architectural heritage, many significant Modern buildings are endangered because of neglect, perceived obsolescence, inappropriate renovation, or even the imminent danger of demolition. In response to these threats, in 2006, the World Monuments Fund launched its Modernism at Risk Initiative with generous support from founding sponsor Knoll, Inc. The World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism Prize was established as part of this initiative to demonstrate that Modern buildings can remain sustainable structures with vital futures. The Prize, which will be awarded biennially, recognizes innovative architectural and design solutions that preserve or enhance Modern landmarks and advances recognition of the special challenges of conserving Modern architecture.
