One hundred years after the founding of Bauhaus, it is time to revisit Bauhaus Journal as a significant written testimony of this iconic movement of modern art. Published periodically from 1926 to 1931, the journal features the most important voices of the movement, including masters such as Josef Albers, Walter Gropius, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, László Moholy-Nagy, and Oskar Schlemmer, as well as Herbert Bayer, Marcel Breuer, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Gerrit Rietveld, and many more. They address the developments in and around the Bauhaus, the methods and focal points of their own teaching, and current projects of students and masters. Originally intended for the members of the "circle of friends of the Bauhaus," the journal published by Gropius and Moholy-Nagy makes tangible the authentic voice of this mouthpiece of the avant-garde. The facsimile reprint is intended to give new impetus to international discussion and research on the Bauhaus, its theories and designs. The exact replica of all individual issues is accompanied by a commentary booklet, including an overview of the content, an English translation of all texts, and a scholarly essay which places the journal in its historical context.
