In a transformative fourteen-year period amid two world wars, Germany's Bauhaus school reshaped modernity. Pioneering a fusion of fine art, craftsmanship, and technology across various disciplines, from painting to design and beyond, the school was founded by Walter Gropius and counted influential members such as Josef and Anni Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. With successive locations in Weimar, Dessau, and Berlin, the Bauhaus fostered creative exchanges, uniting diverse artistic styles in the pursuit of a 'total' work of art.
