Stefan Wewerka

fying efforts to categorise his practice, Stefan Wewerka (1928-2013) is a supremely versatile artist whose creative and teaching practice spans the full breadth of fine art and design. The son of sculptor Rudolf Wewerka, Stefan Wewerka was born into a family with a strong artistic tradition spanning several generations.

Following the Second World War, he studied architecture under Max Taut, Eduard Ludwig and Georg Leowald at the University of Fine Arts in Berlin. While studying at the university, he co-founded the student housing complex »Studentenheims Eichkamp« in 1946. After graduating he worked for a variety of architects, including Hans Scharoun.
