500    "Original title: Bauhaus. L'idea che ha cambiato il mondo"
       -- title page verso. 
504    Includes bibliographical references. 
520    "The main character of this extraordinary graphic novel is
       not a person but an idea--the school of Bauhaus, which 
       arose in the wake of World War I, and emerged as the 
       fundamental reference point for virtually every avant-
       garde artistic movement that followed. Visually arresting 
       illustrations and engaging texts place the novel's 
       protagonist squarely in the middle of the twentieth-
       century debate on the relationship between technology and 
       culture. The novel is divided into three chapters that 
       trace the evolution of the Bauhaus, as its center moved 
       across Germany--from Weimar to Dessau to Berlin--and as 
       its philosophy responded to this economically, politically
       and intellectually highly charged era in Europe. Sergio 
       Varbella's inventive drawings bring to life the theories 
       of founder Walter Gropius, as well as the basic design 
       ideals of unity and equity. Valentina Grande's thoughtful 
       texts highlight crucial moments within the movement's 
       history and in the lives of principal figures such as Klee,
       Kandinsky, Albers, and Mies van der Rohe. The perfect 
       introduction to a radical but highly influential chapter 
       in the history of design, this novel shows how the Bauhaus
       school broke down barriers and built up ideals that are 
       still applied today." --|cProvided by publisher.
