Erich Mendelsohn, Russland, Europa, Amerika, Buchcover
In 1926, the year of the United States’ 250th anniversary, he published his impressions of his trip to the U.S. in *America: An Architect’s Picture Book*—the same year that a commission took him to the USSR. He distilled his observations in 1929 into the politically pointed volume *Russia, Europe, America: An Architectural Cross-Section*.
Mendelsohn expert Regina Stephan analyzes both books.
In conversation with Maren Wienigk, curator of the Art Library, his international work will be examined.
