Gottfried Bohm is one of the most significant architects of the post-war era. The only German to win the Pritzker prize, he became famous for his church buildings such as the Church of the Pilgrimage at Neviges. Yet his work encompasses the whole range of modern building activities, from single-family housing to urban development. The town hall in Bensberg, the residential development in Cologne, the town halls in Rheinberg and Bochholt and the Zublin corporate headquarters in Stuttgart, each is a testimonial to Bohm's individuality. Of his more recent works, the Deutsche Bank in Luxembourg and the media and business premises of the WDR in Cologne are amongst the most important. Bohm's works demonstrate a high degree of sensitivity for the differing conditions of the location, whilst maintaining their own firm and unmistakeable character. The present volume is a compendium of Gottfried Bohm's most important buildings and projects, complemented by biographical details, a list of works and a bibliography.

During his life, the German architect, scholar and political revolutionary, Gottfried Semper (1803-1879) experienced early fame, political exile from his homeland, international prominence, and seeing European architecture transformed by his influential body of ideas. In this biography Harry Mallgrave presents an account of the life, buildings and writings of the man he describes as a colossus of the 19th century.

Powerful, often gruesome pictures from a master photographer. Not for the weak of heart.

Like a modern day Goya, Helnwein's art addresses themes of inhumanity, violence and the virtue of personal expression. Over more than four decades, the artist has pursued a singular, radical vision realized in monumental paintings and photographs. With stark and probing psychological intensity, he critiques not only the past, but present-day veneers, jolting us from the comfort of complacency. Such confrontations are informed by his upbringing in post-war Vienna, Austria; an experience that fueled the artist's passion for truth and tolerance. About the Artist The innocence and wonder of childhood idyll are a matter of advocacy for the artist, Gottfried Helnwein, who was born in Vienna, Austria in 1948. Helnwein grew up in a world where childhood was inextricably shaped by the aftermath of World War II. Austria was annexed as a German province in 1938. In the post-war period, a fog of denial shrouded Austria, both for its role in the War and in the Holocaust. It was against this backgro

For the generation after Karl Frederich Schinkel, Gottfried Semper (1803-1879) was the most admired architect in Germany. His buildings, such as the opera houses in Dresden and two museums in Vienna, were outstanding examples of their kind. To later generations, however, Semper is known primarily for his writings. Although Semper is arguably the 19th century's most important theoretician, the subtlety of his thought and the difficulty of his German have kept his works from being translated and his contribution from being assessed until now. Herrmann traces his life, analyzes his writings—in particular his major work, Der Stil and presents translations of recently uncovered texts. Der Stil, long a basic source of ideas for architects, had a profound impact on European modernists and proto-modernists alike. H.P. Berlage, Otto Wagner, Bruno Taut, and Walter Gropius were influenced by it, as were any number of American architects, including Bernard Maybeck and Louis Sullivan. Following the biographical chapters, which clarify the extent to which Semper's strongly held political convictions (he was forced to flee Dresden after the revolution of 1849 failed) informed his ideas about architecture, Herrmann presents the colorful genesis of Der Stil. Through his close reading of the texts, Herrmann brings to light Semper's position on iron, on Gothic and contemporary architecture, on the primitive hut, and on the ideas of the archaeologist Karl Bötticher. Among the previously unpublished manuscripts that conclude the book is material essential to a clear understanding of the ideas developed in Der Stil.

This book is the first comprehensive study of Gottfried Benn’s poetry to appear in English. It covers the entirety of Benn’s verse, from his early Morgue cycle (1912) and Expressionist poems through to the «anthropological» poetry of his middle period to the «postmodern» Phase II work after the Second World War. Against the background of the poet’s theoretical writings, this study, drawing upon the classic texts of Benn scholarship, analyzes in detail the major themes of his verse and its distinctive idiom. In particular, this work focuses on Gottfried Benn’s extended process of rhetorical self-fashioning, his use of classical iconography, color motifs and chiffres, his often confusing historical semantics, the seemingly self-constituting «absolute» poem, and the colloquial idiom of his late verse. The book also engages with the multiplicity of voices in Benn’s work and their varied textual forms, the hermeneutically variable positions of speech that they articulate and the often contradictory notion of selfhood to which they give rise.
