Material from Carl Krayl mostly for Die gläserne Kette
circa 1918-1945
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 formal studies and other material relating to projects for buildings but also includes biographical material. Includes 17 drawings, 12 photographs, 9 prints, and 4 sheets of text. Most of the drawings are studies of architectonic massing of forms, a few are identified by project name, such as "Das Maler Haus" (the Painter's house) and the Christian Science Cathedral.
Design of the subject of the photograph, drawing, or reproduction is attributed to Carl Krayl, following Ungers's attributions, unless otherwise stated. Many of the works in this group are inscribed with the name "Krayl" in blue ball-point pen; this might be the hand-writing of Frau L. Krayl who wrote the note on DR1988:0015:026 R/V.
The photographs DR1988:0015:001 to DR1988:0015:006 are of the same model. Tim Benson has suggested that the model is a competition entry for changes to Alexanderplatz, Berlin (Shubert).
DR1988:0015:007 to DR1988:0015:009 illustrate different views of the same plaster model.
DR1988:0015:010 appears to be a photograph of a model for "Das Maler Haus", which is represented by the prints DR1988:0015:024 and DR1988:0015:025.
comps. (range [some irreg.]): 5 to 23,2 x 7,5 to 23,5 cm sheets (range [some irreg.]): 5,4 to 48,2 x 6,5 to 31,9 cm
DR1988:0015:001-029
All of the works in this group were acquired in a cardboard folder (retained) inscribed with Krayl's name, his pseudonym, "Anfang", and the name of the collector, Ungers. DR1988:0015:020:001 R/V to DR1988:0015:013 are 13 folios from a sketchbook. Many of the drawings overlap from the verso of one folio to the recto of the next, which suggests that they remain in the order in which the artist used them. DR1988:0015:017 and DR1988:0015:018 are drawn on the verso of book plates.
