Berlin of 1920s and 1930s was a city which still attracts many people worldwide today.
Hans Poelzig was one of its architects. His life and work are inextricably connected to Berlin where he was born, studied, lived with his wife, Marlene Moeschke, taught at the Charlottenburg Technical High School, ran his architectural practice and designed masterly buildings such as the Großes Schauspielhaus, the Haus des Rundfunks and the Babylon cinema.
Alongside Walter Gropius, Bruno Taut, Mies van der Rohe and Peter Behrens, Hans Poelzig (1869–1936) was undoubtedly one of the most important German architects of the first half of the 20th century.
The exhibition 'Hans Poelzig. Projects for Berlin' is a cooperation with the Architecture Museum of the Technical University of Berlin and presents these well-known projects as well as a range of his sketches from early students’ days. Held at the Tchoban Foundation - Museum für Architekturzeichnung. See website for details.
