«HOCHTIEF is acting as main sponsor for the “Modell Bauhaus”
exhibition, which opens tomorrow in the Martin-Gropius-Bau in Berlin
and is due to run until October 4, 2009. The exhibition is being
staged to mark the 90th anniversary of the art and architecture
movement initiated by the founding of the State Bauhaus School in
1919 and which had an unrivalled influence on 20th century art,
culture and design. The three German Bauhaus institutions – in
Berlin, Dessau and Weimar – are currently presenting the world’s
largest exhibition of works produced by those associated with this
movement.
As an international construction services provider, HOCHTIEF feels a
sense of commitment to the history of modern architecture. So the
Bauhaus and modern architecture are central topics in the company’s
sponsoring activities. In the 1990s, HOCHTIEF was responsible for
the complete and faithful restoration of the Kandinsky-Klee “Master
House” in Dessau built by Walter Gropius. In addition, the company
has supported important related exhibitions – not least by the loan
of exhibits from its own Bauhaus collection. Among the works it has
acquired are a “Bauhaus Master Portfolio 1923”, with examples of the
output of Kandinsky and Klee, and masterpieces by Feininger, Muche
and Buchholz» (CS della Società)
