89-92 Conversation about an Architecture Class
M: Interesting lecture today, didn’t you think?
W: Well, I suppose…. But I’ve never heard of the Bauhaus and I’m not clear on something. Was it some places you’d go to or was it more than a genre or movement some sort, you know like Brook impressionism.
M: No, it was actually a design school, located in Germany, founded by Walter Gropius. His goal was to combine technical skill and artistic talent and by doing this create a new form of architecture and applied arts.
W: Ok, so that explained what professor mentioned how strange people had studied with both a craft person and an artist.
M: Right. Before any body could actually begin their former training, they had to take workshops that were taught by both a craft person who emphasize technical expertise and an artist.
W: Interesting.
M: And the Bauhaus founders also departed from the notion of arts being of a form of a luxury object. They want to produce functional art to be enjoyed by everybody, not just the wealthy.
W: Were they making some sort of social statement?
M: Perhaps, I don’t know. But it didn’t mean that Bauhaus’ creation had their own artistic beauty and instead of being individually handcraft like something you see in a… I don’t know…Gothic Cathedral. They were produced by machines in large quantities.
W: Is the Bauhaus still around?
M: I don’t think so. But judging by the amount time on our class schedule that was going to be devoting to it, it’s a fact that must be left it.
92.What can be inferred from the conversation about the Bauhaus today? A: Its teachings are still influential.
