abstract = {With a scientific exploration of the life work of German
architect Alfred Fischer Essen (1881-1950) and the
elaboration of a catalog of his architectural work a
contribution to complement the recent architectural history
should be done. The first-time installation of a
chronologically-structured catalogue of planned and realized
buildings by Alfred Fischer will also include an first
analysis of the architectural design of various projects in
broad therms. At the same time this classification of the
architectural design and the further exploration of Alfred
Fischer as a person affords a comparison with the published
reports, biographies and works of his Contemporaries. With
the exemplary design of new industrial buildings and
impressive office buildings in the Ruhrgebiet area Alfred
Fischer has created a starting point for a modern
architectural development, especially in its principal place
of activity – in Essen – which will work until today.
Despite this special role as a successful >architect of the
industry<, a critical confrontation with the influential and
exemplary work, but also with the person Alfred Fischer
remained. Thus, this substantial and critical paper should
also revive the memory of one of the today forgotten
architects, but at that time well respected figure in the
German architectural scene of the 1920s. Due to the
additional study of the second major life center of Alfred
Fischer as a teacher and director of the >Essen artisans and
crafts school<, the later called >Folkwangschule< in the
years from 1911-1933, also the mutual influence of different
ideas and concepts in the themes of art, craft, architecture
and design theory could be presented. This doctor thesis
inserts a further step to the complex development of the
German Architecture in the years from 1910-1950, and should
also aliten the work of the person Alfred Fischer and the
function of his striking building designs for the ideas of
the >Neues Bauen<.},
