The Bauhaus comes from Weimar and will return to a new house in spring 2019. In the newly built Bauhaus Museum Weimar, the treasures of the oldest Bauhaus collection in the world are on display for the first time. However, the volume not only presents design icons, but also provides a look behind the façade of the Bauhaus myth using a variety of other objects. Opened not as a museum guide in the classic sense, but as a thematic volume on core questions of the Bauhaus era such as the New Man or the design of everyday life the official volume of the new Bauhaus Museum Weimar offers new perspectives on the Bauhaus. Using the example of central aspects of the exhibition, the general question arises then as now: “How do we want to live?” The Bauhaus idea is examined for potential for shaping the present and located as part of a local and global network. In-depth information stimulates further thinking. The book also sheds light on the architectural concept, construction process and urban planning criteria of Heike Hanada's new museum building.
