Discussing the status and influence of the Bauhaus, the Bauhaus pioneered the three major components

The "three major compositions" include plane composition, three-dimensional composition and color composition, which are the basic courses of almost all design majors.

The composition course enables students to understand the concepts and styles of points, lines, surfaces, and bodies, master the laws of formal beauty such as balance, proportion, rhythm, and unity, and feel the changes of color light and shade, contrast, and cold and warm. The three-dimensional space represented by the plane composition is not a real three-dimensional space, but only an illusionary space formed by the visual guidance of graphics on people.

Color composition is a basic method that enables students to master the basic knowledge of color composition and learn to use it. The constituent elements of three-dimensional composition are points, lines, surfaces, volumes, colors and spaces. Its forming elements are still the laws of formal beauty, such as contrast and harmony, symmetry and balance, proportion, rhythm, rhythm, diversity, unity, etc., and the important thing is to create artistic conception through design.

Bauhaus Basic Views:

In design theory, the Bauhaus made three basic points:

1. A new unity of art and technology

2. The purpose of design is people, not products:

3. The design must follow the laws of nature and objectivity.

These views have played a positive role in the development of industrial design, making modern design gradually move from idealism to realism, that is, replacing artistic self-expression and romanticism with rational and scientific ideas.

Plane composition, color composition and three-dimensional composition are collectively known as the "three compositions" curriculum in Chinese art education, which originated from the design curriculum reform of the Bauhaus in Germany in 1919.

Her establishment marked the birth of modern design, which had a profound impact on the development of modern design in the world, and the Bauhaus was the first school in the world to be established entirely for the development of modern design education.

Historical contributions. 1. Emphasize the collective way of working to defeat the individual barriers of art education and lay the foundation for the work of the enterprise.

Sun Weiqi 2. Emphasizing standards to break the careless liberalization and non-standardization caused by art education.

3. Try to establish a new educational system based on science, emphasizing the combination of scientific and logical working methods and artistic expression. The above points have shifted the focus of teaching from a more individual art education system to a science and engineering system.

4. The focus of education on design has always been "creating appearance" to "solving problems", so that design has gotten rid of the disadvantages of playing form for the first time, and has moved towards a design system that truly provides convenience, practicality, economy and beauty, laying a solid foundation for the development of modern design.

5. On the basis of the experiments of the Belgian designer Henri van der Velde, he created various studios, such as gold, wood, ceramics, textiles, photography, etc. It unites a group of accomplished artists and designers to intervene in design, and builds design education on the basis of science.

6. Breaking the outdated framework of academic art education, in 1920, Johnny Eaton, an important Bauhaus teacher and color expert, founded the "basic course", which was not a so-called basic course before. At the same time, it created a way to combine large-scale industrial production, which laid the foundation for the development of modern design education.

7. It has cultivated a group of professionals who are familiar with traditional craftsmanship and understand modern industrial production methods and design laws, forming a concise aesthetic style suitable for large-scale machine production methods, and raising the design of modern industrial products to a new level.

Effect. It has long been called the most influential and controversial art school of the 20th century, and at the time it was the center of utopian thought and spirituality. It has created an educational philosophy of modern design and achieved irrefutable excellence in the theory and practice of art education.

The history of the Bauhaus is the history of the birth of modern design, and the process of bridging the two disparate disciplines of art and mechanical technology. Whether it is architecture, fine arts, or industrial design, the Bauhaus occupies a dominant position. Bauhaus Concept of Design Education:

1.Technology and art should be in harmony 2Visual sensitivity reaches the level of rationality 3

Scientific and technical understanding of materials, structures, textures, and colors 4Working collectively is at the heart of design 5Artists, entrepreneurs, technologists should work closely together 6

Students' assignments are closely integrated with business projects.

1. The role of the Bauhaus in historical ascension

In terms of the establishment, dissemination and design practice of modernist design ideas: the Bauhaus truly realized the unity of technology and art, formed the principle of true rationalism, and set out the right direction for modern design; It has made the machine a creative tool for artists and designers, created a design method that adapts to modern industry, and realized the combination of modern art and technology, handicraft and industry.

2. Impact: The global impact of the Bauhaus education system is immeasurable. He laid the foundation for the supervision and development of the scientific system of industrial design, and had a profound influence on the field of design art, from graphic design to product design, as well as architectural design.

The Bauhaus curriculum has formed the theme framework of modern design and art education: plane, three-dimensional, and color. It advocates the combination of teaching and practice, teaching and production, so that students' knowledge can be put into practice; A set of scientific design art teaching methods and systems have been established, which has laid the foundation for the education of modern design art.

Extension: Limitations of the Bauhaus:

Too much emphasis on rationality and function, resulting in an indifferent style, ignoring people's inner needs, affecting the emotional harmony between people and products, appearing mechanical, rigid, lacking human touch and sense of history, has received criticism from postmodernism;

Due to the complexity of the composition of the faculty, especially the dominance of "avant-garde" artists, the "craft" component in teaching exceeds the "technology" component, the field of attention is still traditional product design, there is little interest in modern products, the relationship between industry and traditional industry is still utopian, and the conditions of the times, mechanized mass production methods and economic concepts tend to be an abstract aesthetic pursuit, and rarely investigate the needs of actual life;

Many of its ideas, propositions, and design activities mostly stayed in the "laboratory", and were not closely integrated with practical life, and it was only after the Second World War that its historical mission was fulfilled through its development and dissemination in the United States.
