Bauhaus-dispute: AfD in criticism-attack on art and freedom!

In the course of the upcoming 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus in Dessau, the AfD waves beats with a controversial application. The party representative Tillschneider said in the Magdeburg state parliament that the Bauhaus had "raped" the human need for security and called for a critical examination of the legacy of this movement. These statements caused outrage, since other parties of the AfD accused National Socialist ideas and rejected a one-sided glorification of the Bauhaus tradition.

The director of the Moritzburg Art Museum, Thomas Bauer-Friedrich, warned in an interview with Deutschlandfunk about the threatening development that the AfD aims to intervene in the contents of the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation. Critics see this an attack on freedom of art and science. For more information on this topic, See the post www.deutschlandfunk.de .
