The history of Staatliches Bauhaus in non-lineal and very complex. Concisely, it was founded in 1919 in Wiemar where it built a solid reputation for excellence until budget restrictions force it to close and reopen in Dessau where funding was more readily available and where it eventually turned profitable. Unfortunately, the situation in Germany itself was unstable and Bauhaus moved again in 1932, this time to Berlin where it was forced to close in 1933 under pressure from the Nazi party. Many great artists, including Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Gunta Stölzl, Piet Mondrian, László Moholy-Nagy taught or lectured at Bauhus.
