The Deutsche Werkbund, a cooperative of architects, designers, and industrialists, was founded in 1907 and remained active until 1934. During this period, the organization presented a series of landmark exhibitions in Germany, some of which are represented in the posters shown here. The Deutsche Werkbund also published the influential journal Die Form between 1925 and 1934.
