Design, Vienna 1890s-1930s
Tracing the development of Viennese modernism from turn-of-the-century Jugendstil (as Art Nouveau was known in German-speaking countries) to early 20th-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. The fully-illustrated catalogue features textiles, furniture, ceramics, paintings and prints, books, metalwork, glass and a variety of other objects from a private midwestern collection.
