With the Bauhaus celebrating its centenary this year, contemporary art curator Grant Watson reflects on the influential art school today. Formed by Walter Gropius in Weimar in 1919, and boasting Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee among its teachers, the Bauhaus school promoted communities of artists working together, redefining artistic creativity and manufacturing. Watson considers the impact then and its legacy now in Bauhaus Imaginista, in conversation with Scottish artist and writer David Batchelor.
