Hans M. Wingler. BAUHAUS Weimer, Dessau, Berlin, Chicago. MIT Press 1969

BAUHAUS: A cornerstone work on the history of the Bauhaus movement. An exhaustive and beautifully illustrated study over 653 pages. Originally published in German as DAS BAUHAUS, this fine English translation was adapted from the German text but includes extensive supplementary martial. The text follows the movement’s development from 1919 in its centres in Weimer, Dessau and Berlin, to the schools being closed down in 1933 by the Nazi regime. This is followed by the schools' rebirth in Chicago in 1937 and follows through to its present form as the ITT Institute of Design, Chicago.
