Design: Vienna 1890s to 1930s (Elvehjem Museum of Art Catalogs)

Chazen Museum of Art, 2003. Paperback. New. 8x0x11. Softcover book, neither ex-library nor marked as a remainder. Brand new, still in shrink wrap. Joann Skrypzak traces the development of Viennese modernism from turn-of-the-century Jugendstil (as Art Nouveau was known in German-speaking countries) to early twentieth-century Expressionism and interwar Art Deco. This exhibition catalogue features 103 fine and decorative art works produced by the Vienna Secession and Wiener Werkstatte movements between the 1890s and 1930s and includes an essay by Barbara Copeland Buenger. The fully illustrated catalogue presents textiles, furniture, ceramics, paintings, and prints, books, metalwork, glass, and a variety of other objects from a private midwestern collection.
