Schawinsky enrolled at the Weimar Bauhaus at the age of 20, attending courses with Moholy-Nagy, Kandinsky, Klee, Gropius, Meyer and Schlemmer for stage workshop. He created his first piece – Circus – staged in 1925. In these years he developed his Spectrodrama but worked also as a graphic and set designer before returning to Bauhaus under Meyer’s direction to teach stage design. In his rich and diverse career he also created a number of paintings and enjoyed playing saxophone.
