The Stage at the Bauhaus', 'zh-CN by Oskar Schlemmer, 1925

Oskar Schlemmer designed this striking cover for the fourth volume of the famous Bauhaus Books series in 1925. As the master of the stage workshop, Schlemmer was obsessed with the relationship between the human body and geometric space, perfectly captured here in a stylized, puppet-like figure. The bold typography and abstract shapes scream 'Bauhaus,' showing how the school wanted to merge art, craft, and technology. This specific book documents the experimental theater work that made the school so revolutionary, featuring Schlemmer's famous 'Triadic Ballet' where dancers wore geometric costumes that turned them into living sculptures.
