Horta: Art Nouveau to Modernism (Gebundene Ausgabe)
von Francoise Abry, Jos Vandenbreeden, Rainer Lautwein


 
Synopsis:
The Belgian architect and Art Nouveau pioneer, Victor Horta (1861-1947), envisaged architecture as a all-embracing art form, and his designs incorporate not only facades and floor plans, but also interiors, furniture, floors and fixtures. Using original drawings, archival images and new photography, this monograph illustrates Horta's remarkable versatility and stylistic evolution from Art Nouveau to his own interpretations of Modern architecture and Art Deco. Beginning in 1893, he built a series of revolutionary designs, including the Tassell House in Brussels, generally considered to be the first significant expression of Art Nouveau in architecture. In the 1920s he conceived an exuberant version of Art Deco for the Palais des Beaux-Arts (also in Brussels), where an exhibition, which this book was produced to accompany, opened in October 1996. Essays by a team of scholars explore Horta's work, his formal language and concept of space, the role of his clients, and his place in the development of European architecture.
