Researching into the characteristics of Bauhaus for my art
Developing my art practice on from the topic of memories and experiences, I started to look into the characteristics of line and shape, linking to that of the Bauhaus movement.Slatted chair 'ti 1a' 1922: Looking into a Bauhaus book titled '50 baubaus icons you should know' I looked at different chair designs in the bauhaus movement, This piece focuses more on the functions of the chair, rpoduction and construction, leading to straight edges, that of Bauhaus characteristics and wooden structures.
Round table, 1913-1924: The round table by Erich Dieckmann focuses more on the artists criteria and intentions rather than that of production and construction, relating more to my work through how it can represent and show the artists work and intentions. Dieckmann wanted to show how furniture could be broken up and constructed to suit his intentions, using wood and other materials in a more natural way to fit his aims of what he had plans to create.
Wassily chair B3: The Wassily chair is one of the most famous chairs in the Bauhaus movement, according to the artist 'Marcel Breuer', he got the idea for the material of the chair from his bicycle hand bars, wanting to create artwork that questioned how to handle and use different materials.
