The Bauhaus Students. Arts, Crafts, and Revolution: The Women Who Made a Difference is an interesting study focusing on all the workshops and the complete reality of the most exciting art school of the 20th century: the Bauhaus (1919-1933). This volume is an unprecedented investigation that looks at the concrete reality of the female situation in the workshops and pedagogy of the famous school. It also means closing the general search for the truth that occurred in that art and design center, where women played a role that, at times, was essential for the very survival of the center, while changing the history of design forever.
To complete the vision of the female students who passed through there, what they did, what difficulties they encountered, what they contributed to the school is -among others- the objective of this book that focuses on the female students, on the general contribution made as a collective, both the most famous and the lesser-known female figures: Otti Berger, Marianne Brandt, Alma Buscher, Friedl Dicker, Margit Téry-Buschmann, Ima Breusing, Anni Albers, Gertrud Arndt, Grit Kallin-Fischer, Dörte Helm, Lou Scheper-Berkenkamp, Margarete Heymann-Marks, Benita Otte, Ida Kerkovius, Ruth Hollós-Consemüller, Marguerite Friedlaender or Maria Rasch, among others.
The female students, designers and artists are addressed in relation to the workshops they attended. Structured in two parts, it chronologically covers the reality in the three locations occupied by the Bauhaus. Each of them is based on the corresponding curriculum, its presence in disciplines ranging from ceramics to carpentry, bookbinding, graphic printing, mural painting, graphic design, metal, weaving, printing, furniture, architecture or theatre, among others.
