The Böttcherstraße is an only about 100m short street in the centre of Bremen. It's history reaches back to medieval times, though the buildings found there today are from the early 20th century.

 

The name of the street derives from the main trade that resided in that street - a Böttcher is a cooper (barrel maker).

 

The Böttcherstraße is famous for it's unusual architecture, a result of the initiative of Ludwig Roselius, a Bremen-based coffee-trader and art patron, who charged the architect, painter and sculptor Bernhard Hoetger with the artistic supervison of redeveloping the street. The result is an unique architectural ensemble belonging to a variant of the expressionist style.

In the wee hours I'll meet you

Down by Dun Ringill

Oh, and we'll watch the old gods play

By Dun Ringill

We'll wait in stone circles

'Till the force comes through

Lines joint in faint discord

And the storm watch brews

A concert of kings

As the white sea snaps

At the heels of a soft prayer

Whispered

The expressionist Chilehaus building is a UNESCO world heritage site for its rich architecture and history. Chilehaus (lit. ‘Chile house’) is one of Hamburg’s most impressive buildings.

Chilehaus

Hamburg

1922-24 by Fritz Höger

 

"Chilehaus is a ten-storey office building constructed in the Brick Expressionist style. The huge structure, which has a 5,950-square-metre footprint and offers 36,000 square metres of space, spans Fischertwiete. Its distinctive façades meet to form a prominent tip – the sharpest angle of its type in Europe – that creates the effect of an imposing ship’s prow.

 

The curved exterior makes the building appear light and graceful despite its size, while the bricks of the carefully crafted clinker façade shimmer in different shades depending on the weather. Chilehaus is especially impressive when it is illuminated at night, shining majestically in all its splendour." chilehaus.de

...kann wahrscheinlich niemand.

Dennoch möchte ich an dieser Stelle nochmals auf den Architekten und den Ideengeber zu diesem expressionistischen Bauwerk zu sprechen kommen.

Der Name fiel bereits bei den beiden voran gegangenen Bildern.

Wikipedia weiß dazu:

"Klarwein wurde in Warschau geboren... Als Juden wanderte die Familie wegen des wachsenden Antisemitismus in Polen und Russland ... 1905 vom Zarenreich nach Deutschland aus.

Aufgrund seiner erkennbaren künstlerischen Begabung studierte Klarwein von 1917 bis 1919 Architektur an der Technischen Hochschule München, ohne einen formalen Hochschulabschluss (als Diplom-Ingenieur) zu erwerben.

Ab 1921 arbeitete Klarwein im Architekturbüro von Fritz Höger in Hamburg, bald hatte er dort als Hauptentwurfsarchitekt eine leitende Funktion... Seiner Position als Angestellter entsprechend, wurden Klarweins Entwürfe in dieser Zeit stets unter Högers Namen veröffentlicht...

Über Ernst-Erik Pfannschmidt, einen ebenfalls angestellten Architektenkollegen Klarweins, und dessen Vater ...gelangte Höger 1928 an den Auftrag, die Kirche am Hohenzollernplatz in Berlin zu bauen. Höger hatte mit einem Plan Klarweins überzeugt, den er vertragsgemäß unter seinem Namen eingereicht hatte. Klarweins späterer Freund, der Architekt Yehudah Lavie (geb. Ernst Loewisohn), bestätigte in einem Interview, dass diese Kirche ein Entwurf Klarweins war.

 

...Höger, der sich den Nationalsozialisten andiente, entließ Klarwein, weil er Jude war, zum 1. Januar 1933...

1934 emigrierte Klarwein dann mit seiner nichtjüdischen Frau Elsa und seinem Sohn Mathias ins britische Mandatsgebiet Palästina, da sie in Deutschland keine Zukunft mehr sahen. Sie ließen sich in Haifa nieder. Klarwein änderte seinen Vornamen von der slawischen Namensvariante Ossip zur hebräischen Form Josseph (יוסף) In Haifa machte sich Klarwein als Architekt selbständig. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Immigranten war er gleich von Beginn an gut beschäftigt und plante und baute oft für andere Immigranten Häuser, teilweise recht anspruchsvolle Bauten, oft auf dem Karmel. Als Hochschullehrer am Technion bildete Klarwein die nächste Generation Architekten aus..."

 

Eine Wohltat, von dieser Wendung zum Positiven zu erfahren.

Herr Höger ist mir nicht sympatischer geworden, es mag viele wie ihn gegeben haben. Es gibt sie noch - leider.

A swan that wishes to be a Realist in an Expressionist world ... but in reality, it is equally derived.

Der Volkspark Jungfernheide wurde 1920 – 1926 auf 112 ha nach Plänen des Charlottenburger Gartendirektors Erwin Barth als axial angelegter Landschaftspark gestaltet (1800 m lang, 800 m breit).

Einer der beiden Bären (1925 von Hermann Pagels erschaffen) am Eingang zur Hauptallee am Kurt-Schumacher-Damm war seit dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges verschollen. 2010 wurde ein Teilstück wiederentdeckt, nach dem der Bildhauer Vincenz Repnik aus einem elf Tonnen schweren Muschelkalkblock ein Ersatzdenkmal schuf. Seit dem 6.5.2011 konnte die klassische Eingangssituation mit beiden Bären wieder der Öffentlichkeit übergeben werden.

Der Wasserturm (38 m hoch) im Volkspark Jungfernheide , ein expressionistischer Klinkerbau (1927 von Walter Helmcke) wurde im Zweiten Weltkrieg beschädigt, blieb aber erhalten und wurde in den 1980er Jahren restauriert. Früher befand sich unten ein Restaurant, doch seit 2012 gibt es nur noch ein Café.

 

The Jungfernheide Volkspark was designed as an axial landscape park (1,800 m long, 800 m wide) on 112 hectares between 1920 and 1926 according to plans by the Charlottenburg garden director Erwin Barth.

One of the two bears (created by Hermann Pagels in 1925) at the entrance to the main avenue on Kurt-Schumacher-Damm had been missing since the end of the Second World War. In 2010, a section was rediscovered, after which the sculptor Vincenz Repnik created a replacement monument from an eleven-ton block of shell limestone. Since May 6, 2011, the classic entrance situation with both bears has been opened to the public again.

The water tower (38 m high) in the Volkspark Jungfernheide, an expressionist clinker brick building (1927 by Walter Helmcke) was damaged in the Second World War, but was preserved and restored in the 1980s. There used to be a restaurant downstairs, but since 2012 there has only been a café.

It is a rare example of expressionist church architecture, and the versatility of brick.

Background

Together with the two previous buildings, namely Main Administration Building 1 (designed by architects NJ Kamperdijk and C. Vermeijs, built in 1870-71 / designed by AC Finch expanded in 1879) and Head of Administration Building II (designed by JF Klinkhamer, built in 1893- 95) the ensemble has the status of national monument.

 

The monument register speaks of a "sober detail office building in modern brick building, designed according to rationalist principles - identified in the symmetric uniformly distributed plan and the use of as many windows as well as the emphasis on the structure by the use of buttresses, pilasters and arches - and designed in a cubist-expressionist style which the great variety in slab construction volumes and rhythmic facade layout with many niches and developed buttresses characteristic; also important from the viewpoint of the administrative development of the railways, created as it was following the merger of me. Exploitation of State Railways and the Dutch Railways in 1917. "

 

Exterior

If Main III of Dutch Railways established large, flat-topped office at the height of five storeys - basement, ground floor and three floors bell - entirely in brick built in austere Cubist-Expressionist style designed by GW Heukelom in 1918-21 around a rectangular courtyard in a completely symmetric basis in both on the outside and on the side of the courtyard a higher uplink middle ressault with effect party in each of the walls (with the exception of the ZW-wall on the inside), and in looked down upon kicking, annex water tower in recognition of the NO to the side-situated main entrance; the whole is surrounded by a low garden brick wall, partly consisting of misfires and further provided with block-shaped reinforcements, in correspondence with the located stepwise upwardly tapering buttresses against the walls, that count, respectively, 19 and 16 bays. In addition to these buttresses are the facades further articulated by the recessed applied high narrow windows with similar steel rod division, but varying in length and width and rhythmically grouped by two, three or four, in each as a savings field treated bay with pilaster strips and dental strips in the frame .

Triple main entrance with wide and high stone sidewalk, has completed law itself abruptly deepening niches in which the double wooden doors with brass railings are installed and crowned by terracotta friezes, as well as four more senior stylized heads manufactured by WC Brouwer and lead bulb holders, recessed in the front and repeated on the corners, fitted at the Amsterdam School-related and curly motives

An abstract expressionist painting? No. This is a stone wall on a building in Montreal, street photography without people. I think I might take a shot at painting it.
