		Taut was born in what was then East Prussia and began his studies in architecture at age 24, with Theodor Fischer in Stuttgart, where he obtained his first commission, the renovation of a church.
		Taut's dedication to art was also manifested in his drawings and paintings, many of which had little, if anything, to do with architecture or urban planning.
		Midcareer, Taut designed a couple of the pavilions for industry exhibitions--his "Monument of Iron," a pavilion for the iron industry at the 1913 Leipzig building exposition, and perhaps his best-known work, the "Glasshouse," a pavilion for the glass industry at the 1914 Werkbund (German Work Federation) exhibition in Cologne.

	V&A - Modernism: Designing a new world 1914-1939 - Objects - The Glass Pavilion
		Bruno Taut’s structure demonstrated the various ways glass could be used in a building, but also indicated how the material might be used to orchestrate human emotions and assist in the construction of a spiritual utopia.
		Subsequently, Scheerbart wrote Glasarchitektur (Glass Architecture) in 1914, which he dedicated to Taut, while Taut produced his Glass Pavilion and inscribed aphorisms from Scheerbart on the lintels of the 14 side walls.
		The Pavilion structure was raised up on a concrete plinth, the entrance reached by two flights of steps (one on either side of the building), which gave the pavilion a temple-like quality.

	Prange_Cgt_E01.html
		Prange wants to show us that Taut's originality was not so remarkable, that his ideas were close to a wider historical framework which considers nature in the sense of creation or science (sic!), respectively from a basic legality.
		According to Prange, Bruno Taut with his social concepts and his world views suddenly finds himself in the embarrassing light of a very conservative mentality, which - and this is Prange's triumph - stands definitely in contrast and contradiction with his socialistic and progressive humanistic ideas.
		Since as an art historian she has no access to Bruno Taut's architecturo-immanent 'illogical' metaphors, she tries to bend them towards outside, to measure them with the socially sanctioned, tries to find them in the historically documented.
