Francesca’s Architextures radio show is back with a fresh new selection of music, this time inspired by the Bauhaus school of art.
Bauhaus was founded in 1919 in Weimer by the German architect Walter Gropius, on the idea of “Gesamtkunstwerk” - a reimagining of the material world to reflect the unity of all the arts. Gropius developed a craft-based curriculum that would turn out artisans and designers capable of creating useful and beautiful objects appropriate to a new, modern and functional way of life. Specialised workshops, such as industrial design, typography, metalworking and pottery were on offer, operating around a design ethos which attempted to unify the principles of mass production with individual artistic vision, striving to combine aesthetics with everyday function.
2 hours of a fantastic musical journey including music by Edgar Froese, Kraftwerk, Can, Tangerine Dream and a big etc of amazing artists.
