Publishing program
The program includes books and, to a lesser extent, eBooks and apps from the fields of architecture, photography, nature, art and cultural history, history and Judaica, with a regional focus on Hamburg and Munich. The publishing house realizes a considerable part of its projects in close cooperation with cooperation partners, including numerous museums, university institutions, archives and foundations. The Research Center for Contemporary History in Hamburg (FZH), the Hamburg Architecture Archive (HAA), the Association of German Architects in Hamburg (BDA), the Schleswig-Holstein Archive for Architecture and Engineering, the Natural Science Association in Hamburg, the Institute for the History of Germany Jews in Hamburg (IGdJ) and the Joseph Carlebach Institute in Israel publish series of publications in Dölling und Galitz Verlag.
Architecture issues are of particular importance for Hamburg as a location. Great architects and planners from Hamburg and northern Germany are presented in picture-text volumes, including a. Martin Haller , Peter Behrens , Fritz Schumacher , Fritz Höger , Carl Gustav Bensel , Gustav Oelsner , Karl Schneider , Werner Kallmorgen , Konstanty Gutschow , Caesar Pinnau. Thematically oriented books on church building, office building, post-war modernism, civil engineering, villa and residential building architecture as well as urban and landscape planning complement these work monographs.
In addition, nature issues are an important part of the program. The spectrum ranges from scientifically demanding titles such as the “Hamburg Plant Atlas from A to Z” to popularly oriented illustrated books, such as the “Macrocosm of the honeybee”.
The focus of the Munich location is city history studies, titles on Munich film and cinema history and post-war modernism in architecture, an audio book series about the Bavarian dialect poet Georg Queri and multimedia projects. In cooperation with the weekly newspaper " Die Zeit ", film editions on German history were developed, an "audio edition of world literature" was developed with Norddeutscher Rundfunk, and "Enhanced e-Book Projects" were developed with Rowohlt Verlag . For several years now, the publisher has also been designing and producing multimedia guides for museums (“Staatliche Antikensammlungen, Munich”, in collaboration with the Ki-AG) and content for media stations (permanent exhibition in “Monacensia” about “literary life in Thomas Mann's time”) ).
In 1997 the publishing house was awarded the Hamburg cultural authority's premium for particularly committed publishing programs. Books from the publisher were u. a. awarded the German Garden Book Prize ("Politics through the Flower" by Kristina Vagt) and has received several awards from the Book Art Foundation. In 2014, Maike Bruhns awarded the title "Building jewelry at Fritz Schumacher" with the "HamburgLesen" book prize from the State Library.
