drj art projects presents CENTURY. idee bauhaus as thematic special exhibition at POSITIONS Berlin art fair.
An outstanding highlight of this year’s Berlin Art Week is the second edition of CENTURY. idee bauhaus, the drj art projects contribution to the official program of 100 Years Bauhaus, in Hangar 4 of Tempelhof Airport, at the POSITIONS Berlin art fair. There, it will be shown as a special thematic exhibition in section E02.
After a two-year preparatory phase, 100 international artists from the minimal-conceptual field of contemporary art were invited by a curatorial team to a personal reflection on the influence of the Bauhaus in their work on a DIN A4 sheet. The result is an enormous diversity of content in works of art created specifically for 100 years of Bauhaus, which impressively illustrate the topicality and impact of the most important German art school of the 20th century, from personal closeness to critical distance.
