Cape Cod Modern

Walter Gropius, founder of the Bauhaus, rented a house on Planting Island, near the base of Cape Cod. There, he hosted a festive reunion of Bauhaus masters and students who had recently emigrated from Europe: Marcel Breuer, Herbert Bayer, László Moholy-Nagy, Xanti Schawinsky and others. Thus began a chapter in the history of modern architecture that has never been told--until now.
