Günter Behnisch - Buildings in Stuttgart

A major retrospective of buildings by Behnisch & Partner was presented by the Galerie der Stadt Stuttgart in 1992. 11 years later and after numerous exhibitions in a variety of countries the Weißenhof Architecture Gallery is now focussing on buildings in Stuttgart.

A total of 22 buildings have been realised in the city, home for a good 50 years now for both practice and Günter Behnisch and his family. Black and white photos show these buildings along with numerous competition entries for the projects in the city of Stuttgart.

The range of projects in Stuttgart is as diverse as the overall œuvre, ranging from several early schools, for example the Sommerrainschule and the Vogelsangschule in Stuttgart's West, through the more well-known administration buildings for the Charitable Service of the Lutheran Church, the Landesgirokasse "Am Bollwerk", the Hysolar Research Institute, the two "Kindergarten" projects in Neugereut and Luginsland, the transformation of Königstraße and Schlossplatz into a pedestrian area, to the latest project in the city, the re-modelling of Theodor-Heuss-Haus, which was completed in 2002.

The practice has participated in many competitions in Stuttgart, only a small selection of which can be displayed in this exhibition. A few architecture models complement the photographs. Last, but not least, some private photos, drawings and water colour paintings from Günter Behnisch's private archive are to be seen.
