[00:00.00]NARRATOR: Listen to a conversation between a student and an art history professor.
[00:05.00]FEMALE STUDENT: Hi, I'm Melissa. [00:06.50]I was just a few doors down getting some help in the computer lab. [00:09.53]My electronic files won’t open. [00:11.62]The technician says it's probably a computer virus. [00:14.39]She's working on it now.
[00:16.00]MALE PROFESSOR: Yes…. From what I've heard, lots of campus computers have been affected. [00:19.48]What a first week, huh?
[00:20.84]FEMALE STUDENT: I know! Anyhow, I noticed your name on the door as I was walking down the hallway. Thought I'd stop in and, um, find out if you happened to have any additional copies of the class syllabus. [00:31.15]The one I received in class the other day is missing a page…
[00:34.27]MALE PROFESSOR: Oh, sorry about that…. [00:35.60]I probably have a few extra printouts on hand.
[00:38.66]FEMALE STUDENT: Great! Oh, and I noticed on the syllabus we'll be learning about, and eventually writing a paper on, the Bauhaus style of art? [00:46.50]Sounds interesting—[00:47.62]I’m looking forward to it!
[00:49.05]MALE PROFESSOR: Right. But,…technically, it-it doesn't say “Bauhaus style of art”; [00:53.71]it only says, “the Bauhaus.”
[00:55.65]FEMALE STUDENT: Oh…? What's the difference?
[00:58.46]MALE PROFESSOR: Well, the Bauhaus is not really an artistic style, uh,…like Cubism. [01:03.32]It was the name of an art and design school in Germany in the early twentieth century. [01:08.28]The Bauhaus was started as an experiment in education...and one groundbreaking technique used in its teaching was that students actively participated in workshops instead of just sitting in classes….
[01:21.81]FEMALE STUDENT: Interesting…. I don't have much background in art or anything. [01:25.29]I am an economics major and am taking this class as an elective. Decided I wanted to broaden my awareness—try something new….
[01:32.19]MALE PROFESSOR: Excellent—I'm really glad to hear that!
[01:34.63]FEMALE STUDENT: So,…was the focus of the Bauhaus architecture…? I mean, I've studied German, and Bauhaus translates into “house for building”….
[01:42.91]MALE PROFESSOR: Well, the founding director was an architect; [01:45.69]however, he aimed to combine an incredibly broad variety of fine arts and crafts under one artistic roof. [01:52.69]As a matter of fact, when the Bauhaus first opened, it was without an architectural department for several years. [01:58.86]But later it became very influential in architecture.
[02:02.15]FEMALE STUDENT: So I wasn't all wrong.
[02:03.66]MALE PROFESSOR: You'll see on the syllabus that you're required to visit the Rutherford Museum exhibit.  [02:08.24]The exhibit will help you see that there is no single Bauhaus style! [02:12.98]I think it's refreshing that this particular exhibit departs from the standard ways in which art from the Bauhaus is often presented.
[02:20.23]FEMALE STUDENT: Which are…?
[02:21.16]MALE PROFESSOR: Well, for example, by specific artist. [02:24.11]I think it's a mistake to focus on a single Bauhaus artist and that person's individual specialty. [02:30.38]I mean, the different artists from the school created different things—fabric, sculpture, furniture, graphic design, paintings,...even theatrical performances! [02:40.05]The exhibit in the Rutherford Museum unites all these specialties through connecting themes…such as “motion” or…“the body.”
[02:48.40]FEMALE STUDENT: Sounds fascinating! [02:49.77]Say, I've heard something about discount nights at that museum…?
[02:53.40]MALE PROFESSOR: Weekends're full price. [02:55.04]It's typically best to go Thursday nights. [02:57.40]That's student discount night—50 percent off. [03:00.17]However, next Wednesday is open to the public for free—[03:03.51]it's a special promotion. [03:04.82]So, I know what I'd do…!
