BAUHAUS, DESIGN AND THE LIVABLE ANTHROPOCENE
Exhibition and Colloquium celebrating the 102nd year of the Bauhaus School, University of Victoria
“Bauhaus, Design, and the Livable Anthropocene” celebrates the innovative approach to design and architecture developed at the Bauhaus School, founded in Weimar, Germany, in 1919. The aim is to reflect on the historical impact of this approach and explore its potential for addressing the design challenges of the Anthropocene. The bauhaus photographs by Jean Molitor, brought to the University of Victoria by the Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany Vancouver, present an exceptionally beautiful record of modernist buildings from around the world. The Exhibit is accompanied by an inter-disciplinary colloquium.
