ISOKON AND THE BAUHAUS IN BRITAIN (HB)

The Isokon building in London, built in 1934, was England's first modernist apartment building and it was hugely influential in pioneering the concept of minimal living. During the mid-1930s and 1940s its flats, bar and dining club became an extraordinary creative nexus for international artists, writers and thinkers. This book examines the work, artistic networks and legacy of the Bauhaus artists who stayed there. It features archive photography - much of which is previously unseen - as well as archive plans and sketches, menus, postcards and letters.
