About the Item
Art Nouveau, by Klaus-Jurgen Sembach. Published by TASCHEN, 2002. Softcover. Art Nouveau, whose emergence at the same time as cinema was no mere coincidence, it represents the most remarkable attempt to reconcile the demands of the technical age with the undying wish for beauty and glorification - or to pit the one against the other. Under the title "Art Nouveau - Utopia: Reconciling the Irreconcilable" the reform movement of the turn of the century not only dealt with as an artistic event, but also the economic and political interests which inspired, supported it are also taken into account. In the chapters "Movement", "Unrest" and "Equilibrium" the historical phenomenon as a whole is characterized and is also presented with its own distinct local features. The centers of Brussels, Nancy, Barcelona, Glasgow, Helsinki and Chicago are discussed in subchapters as well as Munich, Darmstadt and Weimar. Finally, Vienna, the city in which synthesized and achieved its' culmination, is described separately. The outstanding artists are dealt with in detail in connection with the respective cities and of their greatest activity. The result is a complex picture of the architecture, furniture design and craftsmanship and their corresponding approaches to artistic revitalization.
