Marcel Breuer was one of the most gifted of Bauhaus students, becoming master of the carpentry workshop in 1925. This talk by Christopher Wilk, Keeper of Furniture, Textiles and Fashion at the V&A, London, looks at the wider context of Modernism in continental Europe during the 1920s and 1930s and at Breuer’s work as a prolific furniture and interior designer before his arrival in Bristol.

This is the first of a number of Architecture Centre lectures with the West of England Design Forum and Spike Island.

Part of the Breuer in Bristol season, this lecture complements the exhibition at The Architecture Centre which runs from 21 October to 24 December. Click here for details:
