In 1919, Walter Gropius founded his legendary school of art and architecture in the German city of Weimar. The Bauhaus ideas continue to inspire architects, designers and artists all over the world in the present day and still play a role in our day-to-day lives. Thuringia was the home of an artistic revolution that signalled the start of a new era and still provides an interactive insight into the pioneering spirit and love of experimentation of the Bauhaus and Modernism today. HIGHLIGHTS IN THURINGIA Opening on 6th April 2019 – the “The Bauhaus Comes from Weimar” exhibition at the Bauhaus Museum Weimar As the location in which the Bauhaus was founded, the city of Weimar is the focus of attention of the anniversary celebrations. The opening of the new Bauhaus Museum Weimar will not only be a highlight in Thuringia but also throughout Germany. With its contemporary architecture and multimedia exhibition, the museum shines the spotlight on the Bauhaus collection of the “Klassik Stiftung Weimar” foundation, which was initiated by Walter Gropius himself back in as early as the 1920s, in a brand-new presentation. The museum brings together the history of the Bauhaus in Weimar and questions concerning life both in the present and the future. As an open meeting place for dialogue in a new cultural quarter being established in the city, the museum enables visitors to look at the history and impacts of Modernism from its beginnings right through to the present day from a contemporary perspective. Visitors will be provided with a clear and interactive insight into what influenced the Bauhaus artists and get to know the Bauhaus ideas from their origins through to their lasting legacy. The new Bauhaus Museum is closely connected to the “Haus am Horn” building, the first example of architecture created by the Bauhaus, which will also open its doors to the public from 18th May 2019 onwards. www.bauhausmuseumweimar.de Opening on 6th April 2019 – the “Van de Velde, Nietzsche and Modernism in around 1900” exhibition at the New Museum Weimar Even back at the start of the century, art, design and the way of life at the time told the story of the pursuit of new forms of expression and life with a wide range of different approaches. This exhibition showcases outstanding international works of art from the Realism, Impressionism and Art Nouveau movements in the form of paintings, sculptures and applied arts. It also presents Harry Graf Kessler and Henry van de Velde as pioneers of early Modernism in Weimar in the field of tension surrounding Friedrich Nietzsche as a mastermind and cult figure.

Cropius, Hirsch, and the Saga of the Copper House The Hirsch Copper House The Hirsch Copper and Brass Works (Hirsch Kupfer-und Messingwerke) were founded by Aron Siegmond Hirsch in 1906, as the extension and consolidation of an old- established family metal business based in Halberstadt, with associated enterprises in Werne, llsenberg, and Ebers-walde. The firm developed to become a major power in the German copper industry and is described as having played “a leading role in German economic life.”1 (It was at Eberswalde, incidentally, that Hirsch built a large two-story new factory, designed by architect Paul Mebes, and later published by Walter Gropius in his Internationale Architektur.)2 Hirsch not only dealt with copper ore but also with the manufacture of copper products, including such building products as copper tubing, sheeting, and roofing.3 During 1930 the Hirsch company began to experiment with the use of copper in building on a more comprehensive scale. They acquired the rights to a system of prefabrication of dwellings, invented by Friedrich Förster (originally Frigyes Förster, of Budapest) and later further developed by Förster in conjunction with Robert Krafft.4 Förster, in his original patent application of 1924,5 drew attention to the many previous attempts to design “knockdown buildings that can be readily assembled,” which had failed because of high costs or through inadequate standards of construction and performance.

Rich Associate Professor of Art History Craig Zabel Head of the Department of Art History Michael Bernhard Associate Professor of Political Science *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT From Activism to Kinetism: Modernist Spaces in Hungarian Art, 1918-1930. Budapest – Vienna – Berlin investigates modernist art created in Central Europe of that period, as it responded to the shock effects of modernity. In this endeavor it takes artists directly or indirectly associated with the MA (“Today,” 1916-1925) Hungarian artistic and literary circle and periodical as paradigmatic of this response. From the loose association of artists and literary men, connected more by their ideas than by a distinct style, I single out works by Lajos Kassák – writer, poet, artist, editor, and the main mover and guiding star of MA , – the painter Sándor Bortnyik, the polymath László Moholy- Nagy, and the designer Marcel Breuer. This exclusive selection is based on a particular agenda. First, it considers how the failure of a revolutionary reorganization of society during the Hungarian Soviet Republic (April 23 – August 1, 1919) at the end of World War I prompted the Hungarian Activists to reassess their lofty political ideals in exile and make compromises if they wanted to remain in the vanguard of modernity.

  • Decision Taken in Closed Architectural Competition for the Bauhaus- Archiv / Museum Für Gestaltung, Berlin Berlin, 23 October 2015
    Press release Decision taken in closed architectural competition for the Bauhaus- Archiv / Museum für Gestaltung, Berlin Berlin, 23 October 2015. The winner of the closed competition for the ‘Bauhaus-Archiv / Museum for Gestaltung, Berlin’, announced in June 2015 by the Senate Administration for Urban Develop- ment and the Environment, has been decided following a two-day meeting of the jury on 21 and 22 October 2015. The jury has awarded the first prize to the design submitted by Berlin architect Volker Staab and has recommended that the design should be implemented. Senate Director of Urban Development Regula Lüscher: ‘Volker Staab has given us a design that will cause a sensation. It has an attractively modest quality and it will complete the landscape ensemble of the Villa von der Heydt and the Walter Gropius building. An open, flexible museum setting will be created that upholds the experimentational quality of the Bauhaus idea. It will attract people to meet up there, exchange views and rediscover the many different aspects of the Bauhaus idea. A lantern shining in the night will be created, a glittering gem on the new square with a view opening onto the Landwehrkanal. The lower-lying courtyard will form the heart of the complex, enabling the existing building to enter into dialogue with the new one.’ The Minister of State for Culture, Monika Grütters, comments on the result: ‘I am delighted that Volker Staab, who already has an established reputation in the field of museum architecture – in Bayreuth and Münster, for example – has now presented a convincing design for Berlin as well.

This editorial contribution is, of course, free for use. Bauhaus: Still in the spotlight! BAUHAUSLAND: ATTRACTING NEW FANS In 2019, the worldwide celebrations for the centenary of the Bauhaus focused on the achievements of this influential art and design movement. The range of exhibitions appealed to aficionados, but they also attracted a brand-new audi- ence. Leila Stone wrote in The Architect’s Newspaper: “Bauhaus is architec- ture. Bauhaus is costume design. Bauhaus is textile design. Bauhaus is furni- ture…it has never been more clear that Bauhaus is everywhere.” With appre- ciation increasing, more and more fans are planning to visit BauhausLand www.gobauhaus.com to spend their 2020 vacations in the German federal states of Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia.

As for Architectural Digest, it names the brand-new Bauhaus Museum Dessau as one of its “Top 20 Places to Travel in 2020,” adding that “If you decide to go on a Bauhaus-themed pilgrimage, be sure to visit the Meisterhäuser, a group of white cubist homes where Gropius, Kandinsky, and other Bauhaus luminaries lived.” TourComm Germany Olbrichtstr.

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.
