In 2019, when the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Bauhaus is being commemorated all over Germany and the world, the 7th International Marianne Brandt Award will focus on the functional and metaphorical potential of glass as material, which has had an unrivalled formative influence on the visionary beginnings of the German school of design. Taking the theme I am all of glass –
quoting a poem by Marianne Brandt – prizes will be awarded in the categories of design, photography and art, (5.000 € each) and there will also be several special prizes. 60 works will be exhibited in the Industrial Museum Chemnitz, Germany.

Glass is one of the most indispensable materials in our lives today. Every day we see the world through glass: glasses are many facades, all the windows, most screens and the fiber optic cables through which the information passes, eyeglasses and also the windshields of vehicles. In the lenses of microscopes, telescopes and cameras, it is one of our most important allies in technically supported perception of our environment and allows insights into otherwise closed dimensions.
