Book Synopsis The Early Sketches of German Architect Erich Mendelsohn (1887-1953) by : Hans Rudolf Morgenthaler
Book excerpt: Erich Mendelsohn was considered one of the most successful modern architects in Germany during the 1920s. This volume contains a catalogue of his early sketches. It establishes a chronological sequence of the sketches, and furnishes a clear explanation of his creative background. A detailed evaluation of his relationship to the Blue Rider group supplies a source for his Expressionist intentions and design theory. Mendelsohn's own statements, from papers and letters are also examined.
