With utopian ideals for the future, the school developed a \u003cstrong\u003epioneering fusion of fine art, craftsmanship, and technology\u003c\/strong\u003e to be applied across painting, sculpture, design, architecture, film, photography, textiles, ceramics, theatre, and installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs much an intense personal community as a publicly minded collective, the Bauhaus was first founded by \u003cstrong\u003eWalter Gropius (1883-1969)\u003c\/strong\u003e, and counted \u003cstrong\u003eJosef and Anni Albers\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eWassily Kandinsky\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ePaul Klee\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eOskar Schlemmer\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eGunta Stölzl\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eMarianne Brandt\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eLudwig Mies van der Rohe\u003c\/strong\u003e among its members.
