Edition Bauhaus Archaeology of Modernism
Preservation of the Bauhaus Dessau

Edition Bauhaus 58
 Bauhaus Dessau Foundation, Regina Bittner (Ed.)

The Bauhaus Building in Dessau, designed by Walter Gropius in 1925/26, represents a ‘built manifesto of Bauhaus ideas’ and is one of modernism’s most important buildings. Together with the associated Masters’ Houses (Meisterhäuser), the Houses with Balcony Access (Laubenganghäuser) in Dessau, and Bauhaus buildings in Weimar and Bernau, it is included on UNESCO’s World Heritage list.

 

The book focuses on strategies for preserving the Bauhaus Building. It presents the building—and its eventful history—from its construction to its destruction, rebuilding, and restoration. Using texts, photographs, and numerous drawings, the book provides a detailed exploration of specific aspects of the architecture—such as the building’s outer shell, materials, construction, colour scheme, and surfaces—and the long-term preservation concept for the site. In doing so, it proposes structural measures aimed at adapting the building to today’s challenges and at conserving the building with its historic and artistic characteristics.

Bauhausmädels

Meet trailblazers like Marianne Brandt, Gertrud Arndt, and Lucia Moholy in Bauhausmädels – or “Bauhaus girls”, a term that expressed admiration for the young women who bravely eluded traditional gender roles to build a different future. With never-before-seen portraits and biographies, this is a unique celebration of the Bauhaus centennial and a long-overdue tribute to the school’s women artists.

4 „Bauhaus Gals“

The "Bauhaus-Girl Type," described in a January 1930 issue of the magazine The Week, knew what she wanted and would succeed. This volume’s essays take as exemplary the biographies of Gertrud Arndt, Marianne Brandt, Margarete Heymann, and Margaretha Reichardt.
