As a school of design, the Bauhaus was one of the most important and momentous cultural phenomena of the 20th century and revolutionised artistic thinking and working. The conceptual photo project shows the Bauhaus buildings in Dessau in several partial series in the artistic style of various Bauhaus artists: Marianne Brandt, Lyonel Feininger, Wassily Kandinsky and László Moholy-Nagy. In the photographs, the artistic concepts and working methods of the protagonists and the groundbreaking architecture of the Bauhaus are combined to form a new and creative perspective on the Bauhaus Dessau.
