the Bauhaus and pop culture

Submitted by Dan on Tue, 2009-07-14 22:27

I'm wondering what Bauhaus influences can be found in pop culture. Several months ago, during South by Southwest, Mark Mothersbaugh and Jerry Casale from Devo talked about their career. When asked about Devo's cone hats, Mothersbaugh said, "We designed them, Jerry and I. We were influenced both by German Bauhaus movement and geometric fashion, and Aztec temples. We just liked the look. It looked good, and it didn't look like any other bands out there."
