Hack Kampmann
Hack Kampmann (born September 6, 1856 in Ebeltoft ; † June 27, 1920 in Frederiksberg ) was a Danish architect , royal building inspector, professor of architecture and painter . At first he had a great influence on the national romantic and later neo-classical architecture in Denmark and thus became an important and particularly distinctive architect in Aarhus and the wider area of Jutland , where many of his designs were realized.
Hack Kampmann married on September 4, 1888 in Copenhagen Johanne Holm (July 4, 1868 in Copenhagen, † March 14, 1920 ibid), daughter of the architect Hans J. Holm and Anna Dorthea Johanne Severin Nielsen.
Hack Kampmann is buried in the Vestre Kirkegård cemetery in Copenhagen.
Training and travel
He was the son of Probst Christian Peter Georg Kampmann (born August 17, 1816) and his wife Johanne Margrethe Marie, née Schmidt (born April 27, 1824). Kampmann went after an apprenticeship as a bricklayer (1873–1874) to study architecture until 1878 at the Royal Danish Art Academy (Danish: Det Kongelige Danske Art Academy Skoler for Architecture, Design and Conservation) (KADK). He became an assistant to Ferdinand Meldahl (1879) and Hans J. Holm (1880) in Frederiksberg and received a small gold medal in 1882 for the design of a bathing establishment in the Italian Renaissance style . Hack Kampmann studied from 1882 at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris (German: State University of Fine Arts Paris) and became an assistant to the architect Jacques Hermant . In 1884 he won the great gold medal for designing a town hall for Copenhagen .
Kampmann went on many study trips:
- 1882 to northern Italy with a grant from the Danish Den Reiersenske Fund ;
- 1881 and 1883 to Paris , where he attended the art academy and worked with the architect Jacques Hermant;
- 1884 to Sweden ;
- 1885–1886 to Germany, France and Italy financed by an academy scholarship;
- 1887 to Greece with the Danish brewer Carl Jacobsen ( Carlsberg );
- 1894 to Holland , also Spain and other countries.
Career
Since 1888 he ran his own architecture office. Since 1888 he was teaching assistant at the art academy under Hans J. Holm, he became a member of the academy in 1887 and from 1908 for life. Kampmann maintained a close relationship with the Carl Jacobsen brewer ( Carlsberg Brewery ) and succeeded the previous house architect, Vilhelm Dahlerup .
Royal Building Inspector
Kampmann came to Aarhus in 1892, where he was appointed Royal Building Inspector for Nørrejylland (German: North Jutland) on April 1st that year . He shaped the city architecturally until his death. He was also a professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Art in Copenhagen from 1908 to 1918. Hack Kampmann began as a student of the architect Hans J. Holm, who had settled in Viborg as a provincial architect . As a student of the architect Johan Daniel Herholdt , Holm was a supporter of national romanticism , here in particular the name for an architectural style in Denmark and Scandinavia between 1890 and 1910. The materials used should have a regional origin. The preferred materials in Denmark were bricks (especially red) for the masonry and roof, granite (from Bornholm ) for the base, stairs and sculptural decorations, and wood for the roof structure. The city hall in Copenhagen is considered the main work of national romanticism in Denmark. The building of the customs office in Aarhus (Danish: Aarhus Toldkammerbygning) had a similar design, skilfully constructed over the medieval city moat.
Within the movement, Kampmann continued what JD Herholdt had started. His position responded to Martin Nyrop's exhibition building and design of Copenhagen City Hall, as well as JG Clason's rationalism in Sweden. With a dissenting opinion, he wanted more independence, as can be seen in his own picturesque and irregular villa. For a long time Kampmann tried to give even the smallest detail a personal impression, that was the so-called "fun detail period", but certainly a preference that he could not always implement and therefore used naturalistic elements in the decoration. Like JD Herholdt, Kampmann attached great importance to material quality. Incidentally, his designs over the years were restless and inconsistent in response to the cultural crisis around 1900; it was necessary to create originality and inhomogeneity.
In 1908 he designed one of his most troubled works: the post and telegraph building in Aalborg . In the same year he constructed the building of the customs office in Skagen in the neo-baroque style, which incorporated the local red stone architecture. Around 1915 Kampmann went with the design of the building of the Hjørring Customs Chamber (Hjørring Toldkammer) to the style of neo-classicism . But during this period he left the realization of many designs to his sons Christian Kampmann and Hans Jørgen Kampmann , both of whom were also architects, and other employees such as Aage Rafn , whose name is inextricably linked with the Copenhagen police station (Københavns Politigård).
As a professor at the architecture school in Copenhagen, he took over the first newly opened building class, the so-called Danish class ( Danske class ) , from August 15, 1913 .
Some of its structures have been demolished, but in recent times many of its buildings have been listed.
