Scheerbart, Paul (1863–1915). German writer and fantasist, the high-priest of
Expressionism. He was the mentor of Bruno
Taut and
Tatlin. In his writings he frequently alluded to an imaginative architecture of glass as an instrument of social change, and indeed his most celebrated work was
Glass Architecture (1914 and 1972), dedicated to Taut, whose famous Glass Pavilion at the Werkbund Exhibition, Cologne (1914), was dedicated to Scheerbart. His work was an important influence on
Gropius,
Mies van der Rohe, and the evolution of
International Modernism.
