Book Synopsis Jugendstil Women and the Making of Modern Design by : Sabine Wieber
Download or read book Jugendstil Women and the Making of Modern Design written by Sabine Wieber and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jugendstil, that is Germany's distinct engagement with the international Art Nouveau movement, is now firmly engrained in histories of modern art, architecture and design. Recent exhibitions and publications across the world explored Jugendstil's key protagonists and artistic centres to firmly anchor their activities within the trajectories of German modernism. Women, however, continue to be largely absent from these revisionist accounts. Jugendstil Women and the Making of Modern Design argues that women in fact actively participated in the cultural and socio-economic exchanges that generated German design responses to European modernity. By drawing on previously unpublished archival material and a series of original case studies including Elsa Bruckmann's Munich salon, the Photo Studio Elvira and the Debschitz School, the book explores women's important contributions to modern German culture as collectors, consumers, critics, designers, educators, and patrons. This book offers a new interpretation of this vibrant period by considering diverse manifestations of historical female agency that pushed against historically entrenched conventions and gender roles. The book's rigorous approach reshapes Jugendstil historiography by positing women's lived experiences against dominant ideologies that emerged at this precise moment. In short, the book advocates women as an integral part of the emergence, dissemination and reception of Jugendstil and questions the deeply gendered histories of this key period in modern art, architecture and design.
Book Synopsis Biocentrism and Modernism by : OliverA.I. Botar
Download or read book Biocentrism and Modernism written by OliverA.I. Botar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the complex intersections between art and scientific approaches to the natural world, Biocentrism and Modernism reveals another side to the development of Modernism. While many historians have framed this movement as being mechanistic and "against" nature, the essays in this collection illuminate the role that nature-centric ideologies played in late-nineteenth to mid-twentieth-century Modernism. The essays in Biocentrism and Modernism contend that it is no accident that Modernism arose at the same time as the field of modern biology. From nineteenth-century discoveries, to the emergence of the current environmentalist movement during the 1960s, artists, architects, and urban planners have responded to currents in the scientific world. Sections of the volume treat both philosophic worldviews and their applications in theory, historiography, and urban design. This collection also features specific case studies of individual artists, including Raymond Duchamp-Villon, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, and Jackson Pollock.

This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Romanticism is multifaceted, and a wide range of nostalgic, emotional, and exotic concerns were expressed in such styles and movements as the Gothic Revival, Classical Revival, Orientalism, and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.

The movements range across Western Europe and include the United States.

This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Romantic Art and Architecture contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography.

Download or read book Art Nouveau written by Jeremy Howard and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This critical survey of the Art Nouveau movement reveals the diversity of this style across the breadth of the European continent. With the inclusion of Eastern Europe and the full range of artistic media, the book shows how this movement changed the face of European art and design from Paris to Prague. Clearly structured by country, it traces the emergence of Art Nouveau, highlighting the particular interpretations of the style in each country. Countries covered include: Belgium; Spain; Britain; Austria; Hungary; and Russia. Each chapter contains sections on political and cultural contexts, specific visual characteristics and key artists and designers. It analyzes the contribution of both well-known artists and designers such as Gaudi; Van de Velde; Mackintosh; and Mucha, and brings to light many others whose contributions have been largely inaccessible. With a bibliography and glossary, this text should provide a useful introduction to this subject.

Book Synopsis Thomas Theodor Heine by : Timothy Wayne Hiles
Download or read book Thomas Theodor Heine written by Timothy Wayne Hiles and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1995 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Theodor Heine (1867-1948) is recognized as one of Germany's most talented illustrators. His work on the magazines Fliegende Blätter and Simplicissimus is regarded as a perceptive and entertaining comment on the social and political issues which were to form the modern world. Less known are his paintings and writings, which provide an equally perceptive comment on the art world. This study explores Heine's early work as it relates to the exciting artistic atmosphere of fin-de-siècle Munich. A complex intellectual, Heine often used his art for satirical comment. The key to this enigmatic satire is occasionally revealed to us through his autobiographical writings which are equally complex. Particularly insightful is his novel Ich warte auf Wunder (I Wait for Miracles), which the artist wrote while in exile from the Nazi regime in 1941. Throughout this entertaining adventure, a parody of Heine's life emerges through amusing anecdotes. In fact, it is through Heine's literary work that the intent of many previously puzzling paintings and illustrations is revealed to us. This investigation uncovers an artist who was aware of, and fully participated in, Naturalism, Symbolism, and Jugendstil. Often, Heine was at the very forefront of these movements, helping to introduce them to a city struggling to maintain its exuberant artistic environment. Through Heine's genius we are not only introduced to a talented painter and illustrator but also to the radiant art world of Munich at the turn of the century.
