Synopsis:
In the 1930s, in what was then Palestine, whole urban districts were transformed into areas of Modern architecture by architects who emigrated from Europe, bringing with them the spirit, theory, and techniques of the Bauhaus movement. The variety of Modern architecture that was built in Tel Aviv is unequalled but has been largely-ignored by architectural historians. This comprehensive survey not only brings alive Tel Aviv of the 30s but also shows many of the possibilities of the Bauhaus movement brought to fruition.
