One of the most important books on the modernist movement in architecture, written by a founder of the Bauhaus school.

One of the most important books on the modern movement in architecture, The New Architecture and The Bauhaus poses some of the fundamental problems presented by the relations of art and industry and considers their possible, practical solution. Gropius traces the rise of the New Architecture and the work of the now famous Bauhaus and, with splendid clarity, calls for a new artist and architect educated to new materials and techniques and directly confronting the requirements of the age.

Reviews for The New Architecture and The Bauhaus

Provincetown is the definitive book on the history of that mysterious and magical place. It's a singular accomplishment. I'm grateful to her for writing it, as I suspect many others will be for years and years to come. - Michael Cunningham, author of The Hours At the end of curling Cape Cod, Provincetown has gone through several transformations since the Pilgrims landed there - from Yankee whaling town to Portuguese fishing village to bohemian artist enclave to, today, one of the world's most popular gay resorts. Surprisingly, each of those segments of society contributed to the 'P-town' of today. - Chicago Sun-Times
