Expressionism powerfully heralded the onset of the twenties. Today,
the buildings that remain demonstrate great creativity with form
and skillfull use of light, colour, and material, highlighting
verticality and drama--the essence of the modern metropolis. With
Fragments of Metropolis: Berlin, researcher Christoph Rauhut and
photographer Niels Lehmann set out to document all the remaining
expressionist buildings in Berlin. With Fragments of
Metropolis--Rhein Ruhr, Rauhut and Lehmann present the results of
the next phase of this major undertaking, showing that the
Rhine-Ruhr region had a similarly rich expressionist heritage.
Lehmann's new photographs are here set alongside drawings, an
illustrated index of buildings, and maps that help the reader group
the buildings by area, including Bochum, Bottrop, Dortmund,
Duisburg, Dusseldorf, Essen, Gelsenkirchen, Hagen, Cologne,
Munster, Oberhausen, and more. Simultaneously a celebration of a
lost period and a reminder of the riches it has left to us,
Fragments of Metropolis--Rhein Ruhr is a stunning achievement of
historical and artistic preservation.
