Hans Scharoun
between 1919 and 1920
series
Series documents the contribution of architect Hans Scharoun to the correspondence circle of Die gläserne Kette, with Scharoun writing under the pseudonym Hannes.
Born in 1893 in Bremen, Germany, Scharoun studied archictecture at the Technische Hochschule at Berlin-Charlottenburg between 1912 and 1914. From 1915 to 1918 he worked on a military commission for the rebuilding of East Prussia. In 1919, he joined the Arbeitsrat für Kunst led by Bruno Taut. From 1919 to 1925 he worked independently, taking on private and public commissions as well as architectural projects for exhibitions. He taught at the Akademie für Kunst und Gewerbe in Breslau from 1925 to 1932, and at the Technische Universität Berlin as a town planning professor from 1946 to 1958. In 1956, he won the first prize of the competition for the Philharmonie concert hall in West Berlin. He died in Berlin in 1972. (Source: Ian Boyd Whyte, Bruno Taut and the Architecture of Activism.

The series comprises part of the correspondence of Hans Scharoun to the Die gläserne Kette circle and related drawings.
The original order of these materials was not discernable when they arrived at CCA.
Part of a miscellaneous group of visual and textual documents collected by Oswald Mathias Ungers, apparently to represent the work of artists/architects in Die gläserne Kette. Primarily theoretical and visionary in intent, this group includes copies of drawings and texts by Hans Scharoun (pseusonym Hannes) that were circulated in Die gläserne Kette. These reprographic and carbon copies were accessioned as received in a beige folder.
