The intention behind this article was to trace the didactic and architectural activity of Selman Selmanagic, the head of the Department of Architecture at the Kunsthochschule Berlin Weissensee from 1950 to 1970. The school, founded in 1946, was one of three higher learning institutions, along with the Hochschule fuer Architektur und Bauwesen Weimar and Technische Universitaet Dresden, to offer an education in architecture in the German Democratic Republic. It is impossible to discuss the academic and professional career of Selmanagic without examining it in the context of the history of the school with which he was strongly connected for over twenty years, and without discussing the cultural circumstances of the German Democratic Republic which conditioned the practice of architects of that era. The chief questions which this paper attempts to answer revolved around defining the professional and academic standing of the architect, who enjoyed the favour of neither party nor school officials. Answers were sought in German archives (Bundesarchiv, Landesarchiv, BStU), literature on the subject, and through research into oral history.
