The masters and students of the Bauhaus Art School, founded in 1919 in Weimar, set themselves the goal of abolishing the separation of art and production in a return to craft as the basis of all artistic creation, and to create objects and spaces for a future more humane society through exemplary designs. Under his founder and first director Walter Gropius (1883-1969), the Bauhaus completed a turn to industry in 1923 in an internal process of clarification. The exhibition, opened in 1923 under the motto “Art and Technology – a New Unity”, presented the entire spectrum of Bauhaus work. With the Haus Am Horn you could get an idea of a residential building of the future.
