This was the Bauhaus, which has left an indelible mark on art education throughout the world.
Setting everything against a backdrop of the times, Frank Whitford traces the ideas behind its conception and describes its teaching methods. He examines the activities of the teachers – artists as eminent as Paul Klee and Kandinsky – and the daily lives of the students. Everything is described with the aid, wherever possible, of the words of those who were there at the time.
