Abstract
ALEMAN, Laura. ELEMENTAL ni metafísica ni ornamento (1928-1930). Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2022, n.113, pp.68-91. Epub June 01, 2022. ISSN 1853-3523. http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi113.4246.
The following text intends to convey the reductive pulse that marks the Bauhaus’ production in its second phase and also the Wiener Kreis’ philosophical approach. It proposes a focus on the brief contact these institutions had at the end of the twenties, in a doctrinaire affinity that is clearly present in the voice of its direct protagonists. In this context, the common proposal of an elementary language appears as a key element of the theoretical weave that -presumably- connects these universes. A common goal that implies, among other things, to cancel a long lasting previous tradition, to kill parents, to impugn ancestors.
