on the renowned architect Ossip Klarwein at the Ernst Barlach Haus in Hamburg has now concluded. The first stop was the spectacular church on Hohenzollernplatz in Berlin, designed by Klarwein. <\/p>\n Klarwein was already a representative of the avant-garde as chief architect of brick expressionist Fritz H\u00f6ger – who was world famous at the time – and, after emigrating in 1933, had a decisive influence on the architecture of the young state of Israel. Despite this, his work is still not widely known today. The exhibition presents the most important of his more than 100 projects and illustrates his influence on modern architecture. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Prominent designs in Germany” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”25px” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_line_height=”1.4em” global_colors_info=”{}”]Town Hall R\u00fcstringen\/Wilhelmshaven, State Lyceum Hamburg-Eppendorf, Konsumzentrale Leipzig, Kirche Am Hohenzollernplatz Berlin.

She lived there from 1931 until her deportation to Theresienstadt and Auschwitz in 1944. The life and fate of Bronislawa Klarwein have become known to some extent as part of research into her brother Ossip. The descendants knew nothing of her existence. Her great-niece S\u00e9rafine Klarwein gave a speech<\/a>, which we document here together with the brochure<\/a> on her life. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_slider use_text_overlay=”on” text_border_radius=”0px” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”PTFBaseNeueLight_local||||||||” header_font_size=”16px” header_line_height=”1.4em” custom_padding=”16vw||16vw||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_slide heading=”Ossip Klarwein in 1947 with his award-winning model for a university building.” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”PTFBaseNeueLight_local||||||||” body_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_image=”https:\/\/klarwein.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ossip-klarwein-model-universitaet.jpg” background_enable_image=”on” body_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ body_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”][\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide heading=” The Dagon Silos in the port of Haifa, from the photo cycle by Eli Singalovski.” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”PTFBaseNeueLight_local||||||||” body_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_image=”https:\/\/klarwein.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/klarwein-eli-singalovski-dagon.jpeg” background_enable_image=”on” body_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ body_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”][\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide heading=”Since April 26, 2025, an illustrated installation on Hohenzollernplatz in Berlin has been providing information about the construction history of the striking church, which Klarwein designed as chief architect in the office of the then world-famous Hamburg master builder Fritz H\u00f6ger.” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”PTFBaseNeueLight_local||||||||” body_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_image=”https:\/\/klarwein.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ossip-klarwein-infoskulptur.jpg” background_enable_image=”on” body_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ body_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”][\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide heading=”Launch of the film project with students from Tel Aviv University.

The architect of the Knesset is hardly known in Germany, although he lived here until the age of 40, studied in Berlin as a master student of Hans Poelzig and later worked for seven years as chief architect to the then world-famous Fritz H\u00f6ger. The examination of Klarwein's character, his position in H\u00f6ger's Hamburg office and their friendly relationship also promises to shed new light on H\u00f6ger. How did the formal language of North German Brick Expressionism continue to influence Klarwein's work in Israel after his emigration in 1933?
