Bauhaus Center Tel Aviv

This guide to Bauhaus Center Tel Aviv opens with the story the city loves to tell about itself: that refugee Bauhaus architects rebuilt Tel Aviv in white concrete after fleeing the Nazis. You'll hear how critic Sharon Rotbard went looking for those architects and found almost none of them, and how one man's influence still shaped thousands of buildings in this neighborhood. The guide also follows the center's own founders, three friends who opened it in 2000 to tell that stranger true story, despite being told they were crazy. Best heard before stepping outside for a walking tour of the surrounding streets.
