Bauhaus Construct

<p>Reconsidering the status and meaning of Bauhaus objects in relation to the multiple re-tellings of the school’s history, this volume positions art objects of the Bauhaus within the theoretical, artistic, historical, and cultural concerns in which they were produced and received. </p><p>Contributions from leading scholars writing in the field today – including Frederic J. Schwartz, Magdalena Droste, and Alina Payne – offer an entirely new treatment of the Bauhaus. Issues such as art and design pedagogy, the practice of photography, copyright law, and critical theory are discussed. Through a strong thematic structure, new archival research and innovative methodologies, the questions and subsequent conclusions presented here re-examine the history of the Bauhaus and its continuing legacy. Essential reading for anyone studying the Bauhaus, modern art and design.</p> <p>Introduction <em>Jeffrey Saletnik</em> and<em> Robin Schuldenfrei</em> Part 1: Agents <em> </em>Part 2: Transference Part 3: Object Identity. <em> </em>Coda <em>Alina Payne</em></p>
