Fiona MacCarthy challenges the image of Walter Gropius as a doctrinaire architectural rationalist, bringing out the vision and courage that carried him through a politically hostile age. Approaching the Bauhaus founder from all angles, she offers a poignant personal story, one that reexamines the urges that drove Euro-American modernism as a whole.

“This is an absolute triumph—ideas, lives, and the dramas of the twentieth century are woven together in a feat of storytelling. A masterpiece.” —Edmund de Waal, ceramic artist and author of The White Road The impact of Walter Gropius can be measured in his buildings—Fagus Factory, Bauhaus Dessau, Pan Am—but no less in his students. I. M. Pei, Paul Rudolph, Anni Albers, Philip Johnson, Fumihiko Maki: countless masters were once disciples at the Bauhaus in Berlin and at Harvard. Between 1910 and 1930, Gropius was at the center of European modernism and avant-garde society glamor, only to be exiled to the antimodernist United Kingdom during the Nazi years. Later, under the democratizing influence of American universities, Gropius became an advocate of public art and cemented a starring role in twentieth-century architecture and design. Fiona MacCarthy challenges the image of Gropius as a doctrinaire architectural rationalist, bringing out the visionary philosophy and courage that carried him through a politically hostile age. Pilloried by Tom Wolfe as inventor of the monolithic high-rise, Gropius is better remembered as inventor of a form of art education that influenced schools worldwide. He viewed argument as intrinsic to creativity. Unusually for one in his position, Gropius encouraged women’s artistic endeavors and sought equal romantic partners. Though a traveler in elite circles, he objected to the cloistering of beauty as “a special privilege for the aesthetically initiated.” Gropius offers a poignant and personal story—and a fascinating reexamination of the urges that drove European and American modernism.

Als Architekturlehrer fand der Emigrant Walter Gropius in Harvard 1937 seinen neuen Wirkungsort in den USA. Als Architekt bot sich ihm erst zehn Jahre spater die Chance zur Burogrundung. Mit sieben jungen Partnern grundete er das Architektenkollektiv The Architects Collaborative. Hier stand der Teamgedanke im Zentrum, und das Buro lockte bald einen hochmotivierten Mitarbeiterstab aus der ganzen Welt an. Die Ideenschmiede in Cambridge (USA) wuchs zum international agierenden Grossburo, das brutalistisch entwarf und baute, als noch niemand das so nannte. TAC baute auch in Deutschland: in Berlin etwa einen Wohnblock im Hansaviertel, die Gropius- stadt und das Bauhaus-Archiv; im frankischen Selb die Porzellanfabrik Rosenthal. Der Autor war zwischen 1962 und 1964 Mitarbeiter bei TAC. Mit Gropius und den ehemaligen Kollegen blieb er anschliessend in Kontakt durch Briefe und regelmassige Besuche. Ihm gelingt eine einzigartige lebendige Ruckschau auf Begegnungen mit Gropius, dessen Gedankenwelt und herzliche, aufmerksame Art TAC pragten. Er er- zahlt vom Alltag des Buros, von den Ablaufen, den Grundungsmitgliedern und der Stimmung unter den Partnern und Mitarbeitern. So entsteht ein farbiges und person- liches Bild der spaten Jahre von Gropius, der immer zu seinem Geburtstag am 18. Mai zu einem grossen Fest auf dem Harvard-Campus einlud - mit Drachensteigen, Erdbee- ren und Champagner.
