Start of bauhaus imaginista’s international program in Morocco and China

The bauhaus imaginista series of exhibitions and events highlights the impact and reception of the Bauhaus across major geopolitical transformations of the 20th century. The Bauhaus was in contact with like-minded individuals and institutions throughout the world, where it encountered similar movements that had arisen independently of it, and that lent the Bauhaus itself strong stimuli. Realized by the Bauhaus Cooperation Berlin Dessau Weimar, the Goethe- Institut, and Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin (HKW), with partner institutions in eight countries, bauhaus imaginista explores these interconnections. Four separately developed exhibitions will be shown at art and design museums, and institutions in China, Japan, Russia and Brazil.

On March 23 bauhaus imaginista starts with a program of encounters and research in Rabat (Morocco), on April 8 bauhaus imaginista’s first exhibition will be opened at the new China Design Museum in Hangzhou (China).
