die leipziger kunstgewerbeschule... say what?

Class DesignThe Arts and Crafts School of Leipzig1930
"The Arts and Crafts School of Leipzig"Have you ever heard of it?I haven't and I feel stupid for not knowing about it,but how would I?There isn't any info out there on it.(in English anyway)It's like it didn't exist(at least to an American design student).The Bauhaus?Shit, you can fill a truck with books on the Bauhaus,let alone info on the web, exhibitions, and on and on.But this work stands up to the Bauhaus's production easily,it's just more..."crafty"for lack of better term.Some people think "craft" is a bad word,and to those people I saygo fuck off.(You hear me M.A.D. Museum people?)It was bad enough you destroyed,(maybe raped and skinned is a better analogy)that fucking amazing building,but changing the name fromThe American Craft Museum to The Museum of Art and Designwas almost as bad if not worse....Ok I'll stop now.
Enjoy the fruits ofThe Arts and Crafts School of Leipzig,they are quite tasty!
