Josef Hoffmann and the Architects of Moravian Modernism from the Wagner School in Vienna is the tenth exhibition on the life and work of Josef Hoffmann (1870–1956) in the Josef Hoffmann Museum, Brtnice, and presents Hoffmann’s œuvre in confrontation with two other Wagner students. Like Hoffmann, Joseph Maria Olbrich (1867–1908) and Leopold Bauer (1872–1938) belonged to a generation of talented architects from the Province of Moravia who had a decisive formative influence on architecture in Vienna around 1900. A specific selection of around fifty drawings, photographs and texts outlines their role in the development of architecture in the imperial capital of Vienna and analyses Hoffmann’s contribution to architectural innovation in Moravia. Hoffmann’s education and career as an architect largely ran parallel to those of Olbrich and Bauer. All three were not only Wagner students but also members of the “Siebener Club” [“The Club of Seven“]—an activist organization preliminary to the Secession initiated by students of the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts and founding members of the Vienna Secession.

Ein im Juli 2008 vom Institut Mathildenhöhe ver- anstaltetes wissenschaftliches Symposium eröffnete der Forschung, wie dem öffent- lichen Interesse, neue Zugänge zum Gesamtwerk Olbrichs. Die Ergebnisse des damit angestoßenen theoretischen Diskurses flossen, ebenso wie vielfältige, teils neu zu Tage geförderte Entwürfe, Pläne und Objekte in diese umfassende Olbrich-Retrospektive ein.

  • Press Kit Secession
    SECESSION The Vienna Secession is an exhibition space that occupies a unique position in the history of modern art, combining a contemporary, forward-looking program with a building whose architecture is an icon of the spirit of adventure around 1900. This architecture has aged well and as a result, its functionality and aesthetic elegance continue to offer excellent conditions for today’s artistic and exhibition practice. The Secession is designed to be used in many different ways, a challenge taken up by artists who engage with both the inside and the outside of the building, producing an ongoing series of specially developed artistic ideas and concepts. Artists have often engaged with both the façade and the dome composed of 3000 gold-plated iron laurel leaves. The magnificent Hauptraum (main gallery) with its glass roof, one of the very first “white cubes,” is particularly well suited for interventions on account of its flexibility. With the Grafisches Kabinett (print room) on the upper floor and the three- room gallery in the basement, this ensures a wide range of options for exhibitions. In keeping with the motto that adorns its facade—“For every time, its art. For art, its freedom.”—the Secession hosts an international program that explores current forms of artistic expression in solo and themed exhibitions. It is a sounding board for the aesthetic and critical discourses on art, culture, and society that define our era, and for the political significance accruing to them. The Secession is an important forum for young experimental art, but its concept also includes prominent, already established positions.

Karnes, Scholars in Residence 2019 Irene Zedlacher, Executive Director Raissa St. Pierre ’87, Associate Director Founded in 1990, the Bard Music Festival has established its unique identity in the classical concert field by presenting programs that, through performance and discussion, place selected works in the cultural and social context of the composer’s world. Programs of the Bard Music Festival offer a point of view. The intimate communication of recital and chamber music and the excitement of full orchestral and choral works are complemented by informative preconcert talks, panel discussions by renowned musicians and scholars, and special events. In addition, each season Princeton University Press publishes a book of essays, translations, and correspondence relating to the festival’s central figure. By providing an illuminating context, the festival encourages listeners and musicians alike to rediscover the powerful, expressive nature of familiar compositions and to become acquainted with less well-known works. Since its inaugural season, the Bard Music Festival has entered the worlds of Brahms, Mendelssohn, Richard Strauss, Dvorˇák, Schumann, Bartók, Ives, Haydn, Tchaikovsky, Schoenberg, Beethoven, Debussy, Mahler, Janácˇek, Shostakovich, Copland, Liszt, Elgar, Prokofiev, Wagner, Berg, Sibelius, Saint-Saëns, Stravinsky, Schubert, Carlos Chávez, Puccini, Chopin, Rimsky-Korsakov, and Korngold.

Text by Tessel M. Bauduin, Daniel Birnbaum, Briony Fer, Vivien Greene, David Max Horowitz, Andrea Kollnitz, Helen Molesworth, Julia Voss. When Swedish artist Hilma af Klint died in 1944 at the age of 81, she left behind more than 1,000 paintings and works on paper that she had kept largely private during her lifetime. Believing the world was not yet ready for her art, she stipulated that it should remain unseen for another 20 years. But only in recent decades has the public had a chance to reckon with af Klint’s radically abstract painting practice—one which predates the work of Vasily Kandinsky and other artists widely considered trailblazers of modernist abstraction. Her boldly colorful works, many of them large-scale, reflect an ambitious, spiritually informed attempt to chart an invisible, totalizing world order through a synthesis of natural and geometric forms, textual elements and esoteric symbolism.

    Fall 2013 HISTORY OF CENTRAL EUROPEAN ARCHITECTURE, 1650-PRESENT ARC 368R/ARC 388R Instructor: Dr. Christopher Long Office: Sutton Hall 4.104 Phone: 232.4084 E-mail: [email protected] Office Hours: T TH 10-11; and by appointment Time and Place: T TH 12:30-2:00; BTL 101 Prerequisites: Architecture students must have previously taken surveys 1 and 2 unless they have permission from the instructor. Upper-division undergraduate and graduate students from other departments are welcome to enroll with the consent of the instructor. Description: This course will explore the history of architecture and design in the lands that made up the Habsburg Empire and its successor states (Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, southern Poland, Slovenia, Croatia, northern Romania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, northern Italy, and western Ukraine) from the time of the Baroque to the present, focusing on the rise of the modernism in the region. In addition to surveying the significant building and design trends, the lectures will examine the works and ideas of a number of important architects, including J. B. Fischer von Erlach, Otto Wagner, Adolf Loos, Josef Hoffmann, Jože Plečnik, Ödön Lechner, Jan Kotěra, Josef Frank, Hans Hollein, and Coop Himmelb(l)au. The course will also include a discussion of the development of the major cities of the region—Vienna, Prague, and Budapest— examining how industrialization, rapid urbanization, and war shaped the distinctive face of each metropolis. The course will be taught in a combined lecture and seminar format. Educational Objectives: The aim of this course is to familiarize students with the historical development of architecture in Central Europe; to introduce them to the basic trends and leading architects and designers; and to acquaint them with the way in which historical change has shaped the region's built environment.

  • HANDOUTS ZU EINZELNEN THEMEN (Auswahl)
    Anhang Nr. 2 „Die Struktur und Entwicklung einer mitteleuropäischen Groβstadt seit dem frühen Mittelalter bis heute am Beispiel Wiens“ Fachexkursion als ergänzende Veranstaltung der Universitäten Wien und Budweis 8. und 12. April 2019 HANDOUTS ZU EINZELNEN THEMEN (Auswahl) Dominican Church The Dominican Church is an early Baroque parish church in the historic center of Vienna. It is the third church built on the same site in the course of time. The first church on this site was built in 1237 by the newly arrived Dominicans on a parcel of land allotted by the duke Leopold VI. This church was heavily damaged during the first siege of Vienna by the Turkish army in 1529. In 1631 the Dominicans started to build a new oblong church with a dome, following the plan of Jacopo Tencala. The master builders were Jacopo Spacio, Cipriano Biasino and Antonio Canevalle. They introduced to Vienna the Baroque style of Italy. The first stone was laid by emperor Ferdinand II on 29 May 1631. The structural work was finished in 1634. The church was consecrated on 1 October 1634. Between 1666-1674 facade and dome was finished. The impressive facade was built in the Roman style with dominant columns, supporting the cornice. Its architecture goes back to early Baroque churches in Rome, that in turn, rely on the facade of the Dominican church Santa Maria Novella in Florence. On top of the facade is a large rectangular gable with a dormer window, crowned by a pediment. The church consists of a long central nave, flanked by three side chapels on each side.
