benjamin millepied tattoo

Bauhaus, translated as "House of Building" or "Building School," operated from 1919 to 1933. The school, which merged crafts and the fine arts, became famous for its approach to design. Many amazing artists of that time lectured at Bauhaus, including Schlemmer, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, and Piet Mondrian.

Millepied says he got really into 1920s art and furniture a few years back, an obsession which apparently spurred the tattoo.
If you're an 80s music fan, you might also recognize this symbol from the cover of the band Bauhaus's 1979 - 1983 compilation record, released in 1 986.

The band chose the name Bauhaus 1919 in reference to the German art movement because of its "stylistic implications and associations."

So even after all the ogling studying, we can't say for sure if Natalie is the arts or the crafts or if Benjamin is the crafts or the arts, but the two are definitely all set to merge in 2011. Congratulations to the abby, er I mean, the happy couple!
