  • Bauhaus Döneminde Mobilya Ve Tekstil Atölyeleri Arasındaki
    SDÜ ART-E Güzel Sanatlar Fakültesi Sanat Dergisi Haziran’21 Cilt:14 Sayı:27 ISSN 1308-2698 BAUHAUS DÖNEMİNDE MOBİLYA VE TEKSTİL ATÖLYELERİ ARASINDAKİ DİSİPLİNLERARASI İŞ BİRLİĞİ: MARCEL BREUER ÖRNEKLEMİ INTERDISCIPLINARY COLLABOTARION AMONG FURNITURE AND TEXTILE WORKSHOPS IN THE BAUHAUS PERIOD: THE EXAMPLE OF MARCEL BREUER Şebnem Ertaş Beşir*, Şeyma Dereci** Öz Modernleşme sürecinin öncü akımlarından olan Bauhaus; çeşitli disiplinleri kapsayan ve sanatçı, zanaatçı ile endüstrinin etkileşim halinde olması gerektiğini vurgulayan bir felsefe benimsemesiyle özünde iş birliği kavramını barındırmaktadır. Dönem içerisinde akımın bir simgesi haline gelen Bauhaus Okulu’nda iş birliği, çeşitli atölyeler ve tasarımcıları arasında disiplinlerarası etkileşimlerle devam etmiştir. Dönemin önemli atölyelerinden mobilya atölyesinin kurduğu en belirgin iş birliği ise tekstil atölyesi ile olmuştur. Çalışma kapsamında; Bauhaus dönemi mobilya ve tekstil atölyeleri arasında kurulan iş birliğine bağlı olarak gözlemlenen malzeme ve tekniklerin değişim ve gelişimlerinin, Marcel Breuer tasarımları açısından ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda, Bauhaus dönemleri içerisinde tasarımcının mobilyaları incelenmiş; mobilyalar ve tekstil atölyesiyle kurulan iş birliği ortaya konmuştur. Sonuçta ise, Weimar ve Dessau dönemi mobilya tasarımlarının malzemeleri, strüktür ve tekstil başlıklarında değerlendirilmiş; iş birliği kurulan tekstil atölyesi tasarımcısı bilgisi ile birlikte tablolaştırılmış ve bazı çıkarımlar yapılmıştır. Çalışma; Bauhaus’un felsefesinde yatan iş birliği olgusunun, mobilya ve tekstil atölyeleri arasındaki disiplinlerarası etkileşim ile Breuer ilişkisini ortaya koyması adına önemlidir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Bauhaus, Marcel Breuer, Mobilya, Tekstil, İş Birliği, Disiplinlerarası. Abstract Bauhaus, which is one of the leading movements of the modernization process, includes the concept of cooperation at its core, adopting a philosophy that covers various disciplines and emphasizes the need for the interaction among artists, proficient and industry.

  • How We Celebrate International Women's Day in Bauhausland
    How we celebrate International Women’s Day in BauhausLand Women in the Bauhaus movement: Discover who they were and what they did When an exhibition by Bauhaus artist Anni Albers opened in London recently, art critics gave the show five stars. Albers’ textiles, wall-hangings and “pictorial weavings” were a revelation. But she was not the only female artist in the Bauhaus. Now, as the world marks the 100th birthday of this revolutionary design movement, the contributions of its women designers are in the spot- light. In BauhausLand (the German federal states of Thuringia and Saxony- Anhalt), women, such as Albers, Gertrud Arndt and Marianne Brandt are being celebrated. And, a couple of hours to the north, Berlin, another Bauhaus hotspot, has declared International Women's Day (March 8) to be an official public holiday. Anni Albers: Master of Textiles When Walter Gropius created the Bauhaus school in Weimar in 1919, every- one was welcome “without regard to age or sex.” In fact, more women than men applied! Anni Albers studied weaving and went on to be a brilliant and influential textile designer. After fleeing Germany, she based herself at Black Mountain College in Asheville, North Carolina, USA. Gunta Stölzl: Designer, teacher and producer Albers had studied under Gunta Stölzl. She was the head of the Bauhaus weaving department and one of only six women in the 45-strong faculty. Stölzl transformed her students into a full-on, professional, industrial design unit. For example, they designed and wove the blankets for the beds in Dessau’s stu- dent dorm. The Bauhaus Dessau Foundation has a fine collection of Stölzl’s textiles.

  • Bauhaus Dessau Pressemitteilung T H E B a U H a U S M U S E U M D
    Bauhaus Dessau Jay Gard (* 1984 Halle/Saale) is an artist and deals with objects on the boundary between design and art. He studied at the University of Art and Pressemitteilung Design Halle (Burg Giebichenstein) and at the Academy of Visual Arts Leipzig. His installative works follow strictly geometric principles. He opposes T h e B a u h a u s this cool rationality with handicraft, which is characterized by individual M u s e u m D e s s a u mistakes and peculiarities – slips and traces of processing are explicitly O p e n s desired as "beautiful mistakes" on the lacquered surfaces. Jay Gard’s “Margaretha” Artistic new interpretation of Breuers Canteen stool B 9 Being one of the artists of the Bauhaus Centenary Residency 2019, Jay Gard designed an edition of Marcel Breuer's Canteen stool B 9 from 1926 for the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation and Thonet GmbH. As to the colour P r e s s c o n t a c t concept of his work, titled "Margaretha", he uses the colouring of a children's room carpet designed by the Bauhaus artist Grete (Margaretha) Reichardt in Ulrike Lippe 1929. T +49-340-6508-225 [email protected] The interplay of Breuer's design, Reichardt's colours and Gard's interpretation thus creates a new artistic work. From 8 September 2019, Stiftung Bauhaus Dessau about one hundred of his unique stools will serve as seating for visitors of the Gropiusallee 38 Bauhaus Museum Dessau. In addition, there will be a special edition 06846 Dessau-Roßlau (Margaretha 2) that can be purchased through the museum’s shop.

  • Bauhaus · Modernism · Design 
    Bauhaus · Modernism · Design Editorial The State Bauhaus School was founded in 1919 and became more than just a world-famous school of architecture and art: The Bauhaus was a trailblazer, representing the modernism movement that gained interna- tional acclaim. Today it is considered to be the most influential German cultural export of the 20th century. The Bauhaus stands for great ideas in both design and social reform. It significantly shaped architecture, art, and design, and its influence has lasted up until the present day. Experi- ments in form and colour, architectural icons and everyday design, wild parties and minimalist buildings are closely associated with the Bauhaus. The roots of this modern movement — how it evolved, how it inspired and polarised — can all be experienced in and around Weimar more impressively than in almost any other region. Revolution. New begin- nings. Departure into a new era in Germany’s first democracy, which was also founded in Weimar in 1919. Full of hope, with the absolute will to design and to change. Courage to experiment and zest for life. But also: Arguments and contradiction. Rejection. Expulsion. In Weimar and the surrounding cities of Jena, Erfurt, and Gera, along with the nearby countryside, the bountiful architectural testimonials, the artistic works and historical venues, the current exhibitions and events explain the suspenseful history of the Bauhaus and modernism. Travellers in Thuringia not only find the heritage left by the international artistic avantgarde during the Bauhaus era, but they can also discover the in spiring designers who are working there today and will continue to do so in the future.
