The Bauhaus Award

The first International Bauhaus Award will be presented on September 16, 2000.
One prize will be awarded for outstanding achievements in architecture and urban development, a second in art and new media, while the third award is a special prize for academic and conceptual work. The Bauhaus Dessau Foundation will be conferring the Bauhaus Award every two years in the future. It focuses on the themes at the center of the Bauhaus' work, namely city and urban design.

The Bauhaus Dessau Foundation has asked more than 100 international designers from various backgrounds to bring forward potential candidates for the award. Following a pre-selection by the jury, successful applicants will have the opportunity to present their work at the Bauhaus on September 16, 2000. On this day, the final decision will be made.

Thematic Focus: Event City

The urban entertainment culture of the 21st century, the event city, is made up of theme worlds given over to spectacles, enjoyment, consumption and entertainment.. Malls, theme parks, raves and leisure centers have become hallmarks of big cities. Urban entertainment centers bring together shopping, entertainment and event under one roof and are celebrated around the world as successful examples for the revitalization of inner cities. How can architecture and art maintain their claim to provide guidance when our entire everyday world is increasingly stylized into a holistic work of art? What can architecture and art contribute to the design and integration of an event city? The Bauhaus will address these issues and others at the 2nd International Bauhaus Kolleg starting in September 2000.
