Abstract

The Bauhaus design school, founded in the city of Weimar in 1919 and closed in Berlin in 1933, has been an essential reference for the entire development of the arts, design and architecture of the twentieth century. But the Bauhaus is not a homogeneous body, and as its founder Walter Gropius insisted, one of the aims was student autonomy starting from the contrast of different trends observed in them. During the twentieth century in South America attempts have been made to build an alternative model of modernity, to modify the way of life according to ideas of those who defended the Bauhaus. This paper proposes a general outline of these processes for the Chilean case related to projects within the discipline

Keywords:

Bauhaus in South America, Decentralized, Collaborative Iindependence, Education Reforms, Bio Structures, Alternative Modernity
