milieuXbauhaus

It’s been 100 years since the founding of Bauhaus, the legendary German art and design school. From November 5 to 14 2019, Concordia’s Milieux Institute for Arts, Culture and Technology celebrated its milieuXbauhaus Festival, in honour of the anniversary.

Milieux’s graduate student researchers, much like the Bauhaus students of a century ago, are interested in the fundamental engagements between art, technology, culture and design. The milieuXbauhaus Festival takes Bauhaus as inspiration, motivation and means of reflection for thinking across disciplines through material practice.

The program features workshops, screenings, talks, an open house, parties and performances by graduate students and faculty members of Milieux, as well as talks by visiting scholars. The Goethe Institute, SENSEFACTORY and the Canadian Embassy in Berlin are community partners in producing this cross-disciplinary celebration.
