HART 580 Bauhaus
3 Credits
For one extraordinary moment between the two world
wars creativity was set free from social bonds and bold
experimentation in the arts echoed revolutionary changes in
technology and society. At the vanguard was Bauhaus, the
school and movement that merged art, architecture, and
design into a style free from the bonds of history and
national boundaries. Bauhaus was truly an
international art for a new age. This course looks
at the key moments in the history of Bauhaus
against the cultural and intellectual backdrop of interwar
Europe and treats them within the wider context of
modernism. It covers a variety of related art, architecture
and design movements starting briefly with an overview of
the origins of modernism in the work of William
Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement and Art Nouveau
and concluding with important movements such as
Constructivism, Cubism, De Stijl, New Objectivity,
Suprematism and Futurism.
