The influence of the Austrian architect and designer Josef Hoffmann (1870 1956) is extraordinary: for a period of over 60 years he kept up an aesthetic dialog with Modernism, the International Style, and Art Deco. Before being rediscovered in the 1980s by the Post-Modernists, his work was nearly forgotten; now his importance is unquestioned. As a designer he was one of the leading proponents of the Wiener Werkstätte, with its close connection to the Arts and Crafts movement. As an architect, he built the first modern buildings in Europe, such as the Purkersdorf Sanatorium (1904) and the Palais Stoclet (1905 1911). Traversing several styles and schools during his lifetime, his work shows a consistent Formalism. He abandoned Functionalism long before it became obsolete. In a historic sense, Hoffmann was doubly avant-garde: in both the rise and fall of Modernism.
About the series:
Each book in TASCHEN s Basic Architecture series features:
Antes de la llegada del esteta, diseñador y arquitecto Josef Hoffmann (1870-1956), la arquitectura y el diseño austriacos se caracterizaban por los excesos de una ornamentación opulenta y un triunfalismo grandilocuente. Con un enfoque drásticamente diferente y la colaboración de un grupo de creadores afines, Hoffmann fue uno de los fundadores de la Secesión vienesa y de los Talleres de Viena (Wiener Werkstätte), que revolucionaron la estética occidental con su nuevo y valiente minimalismo.
Esta introducción explora las ideas, los proyectos y los diseños de Hoffmann para entender su mirada radical y su influencia en la arquitectura y el diseño europeos, desde los interiores monocromos a los cubiertos que ponemos sobre la mesa. Exploramos su papel clave en la Secesión de Viena de 1897 y en las Wiener Werkstätte y su compromiso con la pureza estilística que se tradujo en la construcción de algunos de los primeros grandes edificios modernistas de Europa, como el sanatorio Purkersdorf (1904) y el palacio Stoclet (1905).

Description du livre Taschen GmbH, Germany, 2016. Hardback. Etat : New. Language: English. Brand new Book. Before aesthete, designer, and architect Josef Hoffmann (1870-1956) came along, Austrian architecture and design was suffocating under a surfeit of opulent ornamentation and bombastic flourish. With his radical new approach and a band of like-minded figures, Hoffmann was a founding father of the Viennese Secession and Wiener Werkstatte and revolutionized Western aesthetics with a brave new minimalism.This essential introduction explores Hoffmann's key ideas, projects, and designs to understand his radical aesthetics and their continued influence on European architecture and design, from monochrome interior schemes to the cutlery we put on the table. We explore his integral role at the center of both the Vienna Secession in 1897 and the Wiener Werkstatte, and his commitment to stylistic purity, including some of Europe's first major modernist buildings, such as the Purkersdorf Sanatorium (1904) and the Palais Stoclet (1905-1911).About the seriesBorn back in 1985, the Basic Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection ever published.
