MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "As co-produced by RM Arts and The BBC, this documentary examines the Bauhaus school of architecture as it emerged and evolved in the early 20th century between 1919 and 1933. The program discusses various figures responsible for the school including Walter Gropius, Josef Albers, Mies van der Rohe and Lásló Moholy-Nagy, and also views Bauhaus within the context of the Weimar Republic, the government that immediately preceded Hitler's Third Reich."

MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Bauhaus (1919-1933). 'Let us create the new building of the future together; it will combine architecture, sculpture, and painting in a single form'. With this vision, Walter Gropius, in 1918, opened the Staatliche Bauhaus Weimar, which was to become one of the most influential schools of art, design and architecture from Dessau to Chicago. Artists such as Kandinsky, Itten, Feininger, Klee, Moholy-Nagy and Schlemmer taught there and, together with directors Gropius und van der Rohe, led the Bauhaus to embody reform, experimentation and the avant-garde. Through art works, archival records and interviews, this film delves into the exciting story of the school and its protagonists."
