The Human Being
The Human Being
This is a re-creation of a drawing of Oskar Schlemmer.
Oskar Schlemmer was a master at the Bauhaus from 1921 to 1929.
By 1928 Schlemmer had developed his course on “the human being”, which broke down into a formal, a biological and a philosophical section.
From 1926, he organised the so-called Bauhaus dances on the Bauhaus stage in order to systematically explore formal aspects of the stage. These included the Space dance, Flats dance, Gesture dance and Rod dance, the Block Play, the Metal dance, Glass dance, Pole dance and Hoop dance.

To add extra depth and interactivity, we created a short video of backstory for each item. This backstory video is 14 seconds long without sound.
