Bauhaus, founded in 1919 by Walter Gropius, has been the most important German intellectual movement, with the aim of connecting all spheres of art in an ideal synthesis. By means of new teaching methods, the intention was to liberate the artist from his academic specialization so as once again to be able to focus on his craftsman skills. Despite its short duration, the Bauhaus masters' creative and productive period prior to their expulsion by the Nazis in 1933 nevertheless left a mark on the history of art, which remains relevant to this day. This particularly applies to Bauhaus furniture, which ideally reflects the demands of aesthetics and functionality.
