Picked this up at the @fotografiska.newyork last spring during their #moholynagy exhibition. @larsmullerpublishers has reproduced the 1925 #designs but with English translations of the #bauhausbucher series of books. They were initiated by Moholy-Nagy & #waltergropius to promote the #newdesign philosophies coming out of the #bauhaus . While the #book is called #painting #photography #film , it’s very apparent in the essays & the visual content that László was much more interested in the latter two. Fascinating as an #arthistorical record and as documentation of some experimental projects that were never fully realized – there’s a great visual “script” at the very end to a film that never was produced. #artbook #typography #graphicdesign #bookdesign #avantgarde #arthistory #designhistory (at Fotografiska New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn-MFajuyrf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Celebrate the Bauhaus Centennial with Lars Müller's remarkable Bauhausbücher facsimile editions! Today marks the 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus school of art and design, founded by Walter Gropius in Weimar, Germany, in 1919 and forced shut by the Nazis in 1933. Between 1925 and 1930, under the direction of Gropius and László Moholy-Nagy, the school published 14 concise books elucidating its key protagonists' ideas on art, design and architecture. Now, noted Swiss design publisher @larsmullerpublishers is bringing the entire series back as facsimile editions that have gone through the monumental process of being translated into English and reset into the original typography and design. So today, we celebrate not only the centenary of the Bauhaus, but Lars Müller's remarkable ongoing contribution, which begins with these four titles: ‘Walter Gropius: International Architecture,’ ‘Paul Klee: Pedagogical Sketchbook,’ ‘Piet Mondrian: New Design’ and ‘László Moholy-Nagy: Painting, Photography, Film.’ #bauhauscentennial #bauhaus #gropius #paulklee #moholynagy #mondrian #bauhausbucher #bauhausbooks #designbooks @bauhaus100 https://www.instagram.com/p/BwcKZgKnMUk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rxc8pjg1uhgg

'Walter Gropius: New Works from Bauhaus Workshops' (Bauhausbücher 7, reprinted in its original design and in English translation) is NEW from @larsmullerpublishers⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Edited by Walter Gropius & László Moholy-Nagy.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The Bauhaus sought to unite life, craftsmanship and art under one coherent ethos and aesthetic. In 'New Works from Bauhaus Workshops'—the seventh of the Bauhaus’ publications—the institute’s founder, Walter Gropius (1888-1969), provides a comprehensive overview of the Bauhaus workshops. He explains the basic principles guiding the teaching, describes contemporary developments in architecture and illuminates the Bauhaus point of view on household utensils, which was geared toward finding the most suitable form for the respective object. Here, Gropius presents the Bauhaus workshops in Weimar devoted to furniture, metals, textiles and ceramics, among other subjects.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Read more via linkinbio.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Check our feed to see all four of the new releases in @larsmullerpublishers Bauhausbücher series.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Please order from your local independent #bookstorehero⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #bauhausbucher #waltergropius #gropius #bauhaus #MoholyNagy #bauhausworkshops ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/CJKHAX4pedu/?igshid=1iki8frpg1016

'Adolf Meyer, Walter Gropius & Georg Muche: A Bauhaus Experimental House' (Bauhausbücher 3, reprinted in its original design and in English translation) is NEW from @larsmullerpublishers⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Edited by Walter Gropius & László Moholy-Nagy.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Adolf Meyer (1881-1929) was Walter Gropius’ right-hand man, his planner and close confidant. As early as 1910, they jointly created the Fagus Factory, one of the most important modernist buildings. The experimental single-family home, “Haus am Horn,” was built for the first Bauhaus exhibition, in the summer of 1923 in Weimar. The house was designed by Georg Muche and the architectural department at the Bauhaus. Adolf Meyer and Walter March were responsible for construction management.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The book describing the project was compiled in the summer of 1924 and became the third volume of the Bauhausbücher. Following an essay by Walter Gropius that supplies information on the “Housing Industry,” Georg Muche presents the design of the model building. Adolf Meyer then describes its technical execution, giving details on the companies involved.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 'A Bauhaus Experimental House' is published in an exacting English edition for the first time.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Read more via linkinbio.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Check back on our feed later today to see all four of the new releases in @larsmullerpublishers Bauhausbücher series.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Please order from your local independent #bookstorehero⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #bauhausbucher #adolfmeyer #waltergropius #gropius #bauhaus #experimentalhouse #hausamhorn⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/CJJItz1pWdM/?igshid=17k790ouqvxe1
