Supporting Programme of the exhibition „Rudolf Steiner - Alchemy of the Everyday“

Rudolf Steiner (1861 – 1925) was one of the most influential – and also one of the most controversial – reformers of the twentieth century. He founded the Waldorf schools, inspired artists such as Piet Mondrian, Wassily Kandinsky and Joseph Beuys and is regarded as one of the key initiators of organic architecture. In commemoration of the 150th anniversary of Steiner’s birth, the Vitra Design Museum is now presenting the first major retrospective on his oeuvre. The exhibition is accompanied by a supporting programme of activities and events unparalleled in the history of the museum. It explores Steiner’s influence in design, art and society, but also traces the impact of Steiner’s work in the Basel region.
