The Bauhaus lasted fourteen years. Its influence has lasted a century and counting.
Founded in Weimar in 1919, dissolved under Nazi pressure in 1933, the school produced a body of work in furniture, typography, weaving, photography, theater, and industrial design that quietly reorganized how the modern world looks. This is the catalogue from MoMA's landmark 2009 retrospective — edited by Barry Bergdoll and Leah Dickerman — and it remains the standard scholarly account of the Bauhaus in English. Not a coffee-table overview but a serious reckoning: workshop by workshop, teacher by teacher, with full-color plates throughout and essays by a team of international scholars.
Condition: Excellent. Clean boards, tight spine, pages fresh and unmarked.
