This event addressed the AfD's attacks on the Bauhaus, labeling it as a \u201cmisstep of modernism\u201d and \u201chomogenized mediocrity\u201d. Referring to the closure of the Bauhaus by the National Socialists in 1932, the discussion highlighted parallels in the rhetoric used by the AfD and explored how cultural institutions can respond to such attacks.

On Tuesday, 5 November 2024, Peter Laudenbach (journalist and theatre critic), Prof. Dr. Benjamin-Immanuel Hoff (Minister of Culture of Thuringia) and Dr. Annemarie Jaeggi (Director of the Bauhaus-Archiv \/ Museum f\u00fcr Gestaltung) discussed the right-wing extremist attacks on the Bauhaus and the parallels to the cultural policy of the Nazi era.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
