From Ulm into the World

In his monograph From Ulm into the World, Christopher Haaf uses the HfG’s exhibitions to explore the dynamic tension between scepticism at the local level and the accolades that the school consistently received on the international stage. The exhibitions were at once a response to permanent pressure from the outside, ”resorting to going public“ as it were, and the product of the Ulm network, which extended all over the world. They not only allow us to delineate a comprehensive account of the HfG’s eventful history but also reveal how design developed into a global phenomenon in the post-war period.

Christopher Haaf studied history and art history at the LMU Munich. After a traineeship at the Bayerische Sammlungen und Museen and working as a freelance art historian, he now works at the Bayerisches Landesamt für Denkmalpflege.
