FAQ About The Influence of Bauhaus on Contemporary Craftsmanship

How did World War II affect the Bauhaus movement?

World War II had a significant impact on the Bauhaus movement, leading to the closure of the Bauhaus school in 1933 under Nazi regime pressure. However, this dispersion enabled Bauhaus ideals to spread worldwide as former members emigrated, notably to North America, where they held influential academic and professional positions that helped perpetuate and adapt Bauhaus principles globally.
