Episode Details

Germany’s Culture Minister launches the Bauhaus Manifesto 2026, a bold defense of artistic freedom and democratic values rooted in the legacy of the iconic art school shut down by the Nazis. Signed by major cultural, religious, and educational institutions, the manifesto champions innovation, cross-disciplinary creativity, and open dialogue — positioning the Bauhaus not just as a design movement but as a vital force against populism and nationalism.
