A true multimedia artist, he united graphic design, art, and architecture in a unique style that came to represent the bold aesthetic approach of the movement. \u003c\/b\u003eA teacher with the school until 1928, Bayer went on to become a highly successful graphic designer in Germany, and later one of the most prominent figures in the 20th-century art scene of the United States.\u003cbr\u003eThis broad biographical account, which presents previously unseen archival photographs and episodes from the life of Bayer and other influential Bauhaus artists such as Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer and L iszlo Moholy-Nagy, follows Bayer through the Weimar Republic, Nazi Germany and finally to his exile in the United States. Shining a light on Bayer's time in Berlin during the Weimar Republic, and his route out of the Nazi state, Russler provides rich new insights into how Bauhaus artists navigated a protracted period of social upheaval and dictatorship, where commercial success was fraught with a deep hostility towards the regime and the temptations of emigration.\u003cbr\u003eRevealing the tensions of an avant-garde artist struggling to practice during a period of repression, \u003ci\u003eHerbert Bayer, Graphic Designer\u003c\/i\u003e speaks to both the memory of those who left Nazi Germany, but also the perseverance of artists and intellectuals throughout history who have worked under authoritarian regimes. Drawing on never before interpreted documents, letters and archival material, Russler tells Bayer's compelling story     documenting the life of a unique artist and offering a valuable contribution to research in emigre experiences.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46636923551902,"sku":"UBD-9781350229716","price":49.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781350229716.jpg?v=1774399740","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781350229716","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
