Bauhaus Women: A Global Perspective

Autor Elizabeth Otto, Patrick Rössler
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 mar 2019
Forty-five key women of the Bauhaus movement.Bauhaus Women: A Global Perspective reclaims the other half of Bauhaus history, yielding a new understanding of the radical experiments in art and life undertaken at the Bauhaus and the innovations that continue to resonate with viewers around the world today. The story of the Bauhaus has usually been kept narrow, localised to its original time and place and associated with only a few famous men such as Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky and László Moholy-Nagy. Bauhaus Women: A Global Perspective bursts the bounds of this slim history by revealing fresh Bauhaus faces: Forty-five Bauhaus women unjustifiably forgotten by most history books. This book also widens the lens to reveal how the Bauhaus drew women from many parts of Europe and beyond, and how, through these cosmopolitan female designers, artists and architects, it sent the Bauhaus message out into the world and to a global audience.

Recenzii

Spotlights 45 Bauhaus women and their courage and creativity, as well as their progressive ideas and inspiring stories.
Readers will be satisfied to find a mixture of known and lesser-known names.
By offering crisply concise and inviting profiles of 45 Bauhaus women, and through striking photos and graphics, Otto and Rossler celebrate the extraordinary richness of the contributions made by women in textiles as well as in supposedly "masculine" arts like architecture.
An eye-opening survey of arresting photomontages, choreography and costumes that evoke 1970s punk or 1980s new romanticism as much the totalitarian regimes under which these artists worked.
Credit, finally, is being given to the women who helped make the Bauhaus what it was... Bauhaus Women: A Global Perspective, brings 45 women back into view.
Bauhaus Women aims to make up for this century of misogyny by showcasing these neglected women artists.
