Scope and content
Ise is still very busy. She will discuss the title 'Bauhaus Archiv' with Wingler. It will probably be moved to Berlin; where it can be re-named. She describes preparations of the Gropius Exhibition, which will now go to Greece, Italy, Cyprus, Germany and Switzerland. The Exhibition covers Walter Gropius' work post-Bauhaus. Would the English be interested in the Exhibition? Jane Drew and Nicholas Pevsner [sic] have been both dismissive of Walter Gropius as either "an educator" or "a moral force". She will go to Los Angeles for the Bauhaus Exhibition and will introduce the speaker, Jane McCullough-Thompson who has been commissioned to write a book on 'Gropius and the Bauhaus'
