FAQ About The Impact of Bauhaus on Modern Dance

Oskar Schlemmer was a German painter, sculptor, designer and choreographer associated with the Bauhaus movement. He played a pivotal role in integrating the Bauhaus principles with dance, most notably through his work 'The Triadic Ballet' in 1922. His ideas centered around the concept of the human body as a moving design element within three-dimensional space, combining geometry with stylized movements. Schlemmer's interdisciplinary approach helped bridge the gap between visual arts and dance, influencing modern choreography.
