Fred Forbat (1897\u20131972) worked in Germany and Hungary, in the Soviet Union, briefly in Greece and, finally, in Sweden during his 50-year career, and he left his mark in each of these countries both with his built work and his numerous publications. Born into a Jewish family in P\u00e9cs, Hungary, Forbat was exposed to political upheaval several times along his professional path, forcing him to move or emigrate due to his origins and beliefs.<br>Fred Forbat, who cultivated intensive connections and in some cases close friendships with the most influential architects and urban planners of the 20th century, was particularly well qualified to portray the developments of those decades. It is therefore an extraordinary stroke of luck that the book manuscript, together with the illustrations selected by Forbat himself, has survived.<br><br>Please ask our colleagues in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/\">Bauhaus-<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shop<\/a> for prices and availability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":2144,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-3102","publication","type-publication","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"seo_titel":"","keywords":"","noindex":false,"redirect":"","short_url":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/3102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/publication"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/3102\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24614,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/3102\/revisions\/24614"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
