Life

Heinrich Jungebloedt studied at the Essen School of Applied Arts and then went to the Berlin company Vereinigte Werkstätten für Mosaik und Glasmalerei Puhl & Wagner, Gottfried Heinersdorff . Artists and architects such as Karl Schmidt-Rottluff , Heinrich Campendonk , Marcel Breuer and Erich Mendelsohn worked for this company . In 1925 Jungebloedt was appointed artistic director of the company's mosaic department. During these years he created the designs for the mourning hall at the Ohlsdorf cemetery , the sacrament house of St. Hedwig's Cathedral in Berlin and the floor in the brewhouse of the Kindl brewery . He contributed to the modernization of the Hotel Excelsior in Berlin and the Hotel Metropol in Cologne.

During the " Aryanization ", Gottfried Heinersdorff was forced out of the company, which was now called August Wagner, the unified workshops for mosaics and glass painting . The role of Heinrich Jungebloedt in these processes has not been explored. The company now manufactured u. a. Furnishings for the German House at the World Exhibition in Paris 1937 , for the KdF ship Wilhelm Gustloff , the Tannenberg Memorial and the New Reich Chancellery .

After 1945 Jungebloedt and his colleague Elisabeth Jeske (1921–2002) ran their own workshop in Schulzendorf . You were involved in the restoration of ancient mosaics in the Bode and Pergamon Museum (Hephaiston mosaic). This was followed by orders for building-related art throughout the GDR , including the wall mosaic for the Chamber of Technology from 1950 to 1951. Whoever wants to light has to burn himself by Charles Crodel , today the German Bundestag , Jakob-Kaiser-Haus .

Heinrich Jungebloedt died in Schulzendorf in 1976 and was given a grave of honor in Eichwalde . The workshop was initially taken over by Elisabeth Jeske, after which it was continued by Helmut Mencke (1944–2018). The historical mosaic materials were taken over by the restorer Joanna Pomm, Berlin.
