Annual Theme 2019
Centenary

The theme of this year is the Bauhaus Centenary. In 2019, we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus. And it is a really special privilege that we can celebrate this centenary here in Dessau. The Bauhaus years in Dessau from 1925 until 1932 are considered the most productive, but also the most ambivalent ones of this School of Design. And even today, you can deeply plunge in the Bauhaus culture at many locations in the city. In this year, the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation looks both back and towards the future. Even 100 years after the founding of the Bauhaus, many of the ideas and impulses are still current. This is reflected in the extensive centenary programme of the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation.
