Josef Frank from the Arkdes Collections Town plan by Josef Frank from the ArkDes collections. Feb 27, 2017 08:14 UTC Josef Frank – Against Design. 10 March – 27 August 2017. Josef Frank – Against Design is the most comprehensive exhibition ever devoted to this world-renowned architect and designer. The exhibition shows the diversity of Frank’s body of work and includes many architectural projects that are unknown to the Swedish public. The exhibition presents unique material from the ArkDes collections never previously displayed. The exhibition presents the whole range of Frank’s diverse body of work, from the ground-breaking architecture of his early career to the brilliantly- coloured patterns and furniture for Svenskt Tenn in his later years. Josef Frank was a pioneer of Modernism and continues to influence and inspire the designers of today. Amongst the important works on display are pieces of furniture from the first interior he created in 1910 – Karl and Hedwig Tedesko’s apartment in Vienna. There are also items from Haus & Garten, the furnishing house that Frank ran in Vienna with his colleague Oskar Wlach. Josef Frank as architect Josef Frank was born in Baden, just outside Vienna, in 1885. He was one of the key figures in architecture and design in Austria in the 1910s and 1920s, but with the emergence of anti-Semitism in Austria in the 1930s he felt he had no option but to move to Sweden, his wife’s home country, in 1933. From 1939 to 1947 he worked in the United States, but subsequently returned to Stockholm, where he was employed as a designer for Svenskt Tenn until his death in 1967. Most of Frank’s architectural work in Austria focussed on social housing projects for the working classes. These included large residential areas and blocks inspired by the garden city ideal. In 1932, Frank was in charge of the Werkbundsiedlung housing exhibition in Vienna, an important contribution to the debate on a more liberated lifestyle in the modern age. Architects represented included contemporary modernists such as Josef Hoffman, Adolf Loos, Richard Neutra, and Gerrit Rietveld. The exhibition formed part of Vienna’s “Rotes Wien” public housing programme. Alongside his large-scale housing projects, Frank also undertook work for more affluent families. Perhaps his most important and best-known work is Villa Beer in Vienna, built between 1929 and 1931. In Sweden, Frank is known as the originator of some of the first functionalist architecture in the country – five holiday homes in Falsterbo, designed between 1924 and 1936. However, most of his time in Sweden came to be taken up with interior design and furniture projects. As early as 1934 he was taken on as a designer for Svenskt Tenn by Estrid Erikson. The exhibition shows several unique, original sketches for some of his best-known patterns. Against design Although Josef Frank was one of the leading Austrian Modernists, over the years he became increasingly critical of Modernism’s severity. He was critical of the attitude of the designer to the notion of the Gesamtkunstwerk, or ‘total work of art’: the super-designed environment, standardised furniture and the invention of new forms for their own sake. Neither a personalised, artistically- inspired design nor a standardised, machine-made product – as in Bauhaus style – were meaningful in his eyes. He spoke out against both functionalism and formalism and his own creations were inspired more by the classical tradition. It is his criticism that prompts the title of our exhibition: Josef Frank – Against Design. Instead, he developed a softer, less restrictive approach, articulated in a philosophy of architecture and interior design he called “Accidentism”. “All the places where we are comfortable – rooms, streets and cities – have arisen through coincidences”, wrote Frank in 1958 in the magazine Form, where the concept was first launched. However, Frank did not believe chance should be allowed to dictate; he welcomed a less restrictive philosophy of architecture and interior design that accommodated both the high-brow and the low-brow – good and poor taste. This approach was put into practice in the “fantasy houses:” thirteen sketches for houses that Frank designed for his friend Dagmar Grill. The exhibition features several of the original watercolours from the ArkDes collections. The houses are far removed from the austere design idiom of Modernism in terms of both style and expression. Frank summarised his new, inclusive philosophy in an unpublished manuscript: “Every great work of art must border on kitsch”. About the exhibition Josef Frank – Against Designis on display at ArkDes from 10 March to 27 August 2017. The exhibition was produced in 2016 by MAK, the Austrian Museum of Applied Arts/Contemporary Art in Vienna. The ArkDes exhibition is a reworking of the MAK exhibition. Curators: Hermann Czech and Sebastian Hackenschmidt Producer: Lena Landerberg, ArkDes Scenographer: Camilla Ed Graphic design: Le Bureau ABOUT THE SWEDISH CENTRE FOR ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN With an emphasis on learning, sharing and provoking debate about the practical and theoretical role of design and architecture in contemporary life, the Centre exists to illustrate and offer an active platform for architecture, design and sustainable urban development, as well as to care for, list, scientifically process and enhance, through new acquisitions, the collections entrusted to it..

  • Sweden Celebrates 85 Years with Josef Frank
    The Frank 85 exhibition is open from September 21th to October 28th, 2018 Sep 21, 2018 13:42 GMT Sweden celebrates 85 years with Josef Frank This year marks 85 years since one of Sweden’s most renowned designers came and enriched his new homeland with colourful prints and timeless interiors. To commemorate this, Svenskt Tenn has created an exhibition presenting a mix of newly produced and classic designs, as well as objects from the archives – all created by Josef Frank. Josef and Anna Frank left their homeland, Austria, in December 1933 due to the rise of anti-Semitism. In January 1934, Josef Frank began a lifelong collaboration with Svenskt Tenn’s founder Estrid Ericson. “With this tribute exhibition we want to show the breadth of Josef Frank’s creativity and how much his designs have contributed to Swedish design history and the present,” says Thommy Bindefeld, marketing manager and creative director. This autumn’s big fabric news is Josef Frank’s Baranquilla, which is now being launched with a black base. There will also be a number of new launches from the archives: Cabinet 2215 is a classic piece of furniture that will return to Svenskt Tenn’s range in 2018, together with a sideboard, a stool a classic captain’s chair and a round dining table. “Estrid Ericson felt that a round dining table with room for eight people was the most suitable for serving dinner, so all of the dinner guests could see and hear each other. Our customers have also been asking for a large, round dining table and subsequently, table 1020 has returned to our range,” says Bindefeld.

  • Svenskt Tenn Introduces Five Vases by Josef Frank
    Oct 01, 2015 16:00 GMT Svenskt Tenn introduces five vases by Josef Frank Five new clear glass vases designed by Josef Frank are now available at Svenskt Tenn. The vases are shown in the exhibition “100 vases with flowers”, which opens October 1 at Svenskt Tenn in Stockholm. The exhibition is a tribute to Svenskt Tenn’s founder Estrid Ericson’s autumn exhibition from 1940. Svenskt Tenn’s founder Estrid Ericson had an urge to bring inside elements of nature for use in furnishings and table settings. Every week she brought flowers and twigs from her summer house garden on Tyresö outside Stockholm to decorate the store at Strandvägen 5. “Estrid Ericson was often referred to as the Queen of Table Settings because of herability to mix simple things with the lavishly festive,” says Thommy Bindefeld, Marketing Director at Svenskt Tenn. “She combined various styles and brought together different materials, colors and shapes. We want this exhibition to inspire visitors to create beautiful flower compositions and table settings in the spirit of Estrid Ericson.” In the exhibition, five new clear glass vases from the archive are shown. The vases, designed by Josef Frank in 1957, are now for the first time being produced at Skrufs glassworksin Småland, Sweden. Svenskt Tenn also introduces a collection of lights, exclusively sold in Sweden through Svenskt Tenn, designed by the Italian-British duo Giopato & Coombes and by Kalmar Werkstätten of Austria. “Giopato & Coombes is a prominent design duo working with traditional Italian artisans and high quality materials,” says Thommy Bindefeld. “Kalmar Werkstätten is a classic lightingmanufacturer, suppliers to Josef Frank’s own company Haus & Garten during the 1930s.

  • To Mexico in Estrid Ericson's Footsteps – New Exhibition at Svenskt Tenn
    Jun 10, 2014 09:30 GMT To Mexico in Estrid Ericson’s footsteps – new exhibition at Svenskt Tenn Svenskt Tenn’s founder Estrid Ericson travelled to Mexico in 1939. She brought 70 boxes of objects back to create an exhibition in the store in Stockholm. Today a new exhibition opens, showing products purchased during a trip in Estrid Ericson’s footsteps in 2013. ’’The world is a book and he who stays at home reads only one page was one of Estrid Ericson’s favorite quotations, which she had engraved on a pewter matchbox. Travel was one of her main sources of inspiration and she was constantly looking for new items for Svenskt Tenn, preferably things that could not be found elsewhere in Sweden’’, says Thommy Bindefeld, Marketing Director at Svenskt Tenn. Ericson’s purchasing journeys took her to many countries and in the spring of 1939 she traveled with her friend Ragnhild Lundberg to Mexico. She looked up producers and placed orders with them directly. A few months later, boatloads of Mexican objects arrived, filling the store on Strandvägen in Stockholm. The show became one of the most appreciated events in the company’s history that far. Today a new exhibition opens, displaying the handpicked items purchased during a trip to Mexico in Estrid Ericson’s footsteps. All items are for sale. ’’It has been very exciting to follow in Estrid Ericson’s footsteps. We have rediscovered some of the items she selected during her trip, and we have also found many other beautiful crafted products that we simply could not resist,’’ says Thommy Bindefeld.

  • JOSEF FRANK: Against Design
    Press Release JOSEF FRANK: Against Design Press Conference Tuesday, 15 December 2015, 10:30 a.m. Opening Tuesday, 15 December 2015, 7 p.m. Exhibition Venue MAK Exhibition Hall MAK, Stubenring 5, 1010 Vienna Exhibition Dates 16 December 2015 – 12 June 2016 Opening Hours Tue 10 a.m.–10 p.m., Wed–Sun 10 a.m.–6 p.m. Free admission on Tuesdays from 6–10 p.m. “One can use everything that can be used,” proclaimed Josef Frank, one of the most important Austrian architects and designers of modernity, who, with this undogmatic, anti-formalist design approach, was far ahead of his time. More and more, Frank’s architectural sensibility, which placed serviceability and comfort above form and rules of form, counts as trend-setting. The exhibition JOSEF FRANK: Against Design gives a comprehensive overview of the multi-layered oeuvre of this extraordinary architect and designer, while being much more than a survey of his work. This MAK solo exhibition delves into Frank’s complex intellectual and creative strategies, which today are once again highly topical. The exhibition title Against Design encapsulates this undogmatic stance. Frank, who as an architect grappled with all of the themes having to do with architecture and living environments, was also highly productive as a “designer” and developed a plethora of furniture and textiles. Within the international avant-garde, however, he adopted a very critical position. He expressly declared himself opposed to the idea of the Gesamtkunstwerk, standardized furnishings, and innovative forms for their own sake. He could not really warm up to either the individual-artistic paradigms of the Wiener Werkstätte or to functional, mechanized production deriving from the Bauhaus.

  • Estrid Ericson Biography
    Estrid Ericson (1884-1981) was a Swedish artist, designer and accomplished entrepreneur responsible for both the establishment and longevity of Svenskt Tenn (Swedish Pewter), a Swedish interior design company for which she served as managing director for 56 years. Together with Nils Fougstedt, Ericson developed Svenskt Tenn into a most influential enterprise involved in manufacturing and design, imports, exports, retail sales and consulting services. Ericson was born in 1894 and raised in Hjo in Vastergotland. In the early 1920s, she trained as a drawing teacher at the Technical School in Stockholm. Thereafter she worked for several years as an art teacher, a pewter artist and interior design consultant at Svenskt Hemslöjd and Willman and Wiklund. In 1924, together with fellow pewter artist Nils Fougstedt, Ericson opened a small pewter workshop, and later in the same year they founded Svenskt Tenn in Stockholm. Initially, Svengst Tenn produced and sold creative modern designs in pewter, which were recognized for their wonderful quality of craftsmanship. In the 1930s, the focus of Svenskt Tenn shifted away from pewter and onto interior design and architect-designed furniture. In 1934, Ericson offered the Austrian architect Josef Frank a position within the firm, which proved to be an important driving collaboration for Svenskt Tenn. Ericson and Frank developed an iconic style that while adopting some of the tenets of functionalism, maintained a warmth, 51 E 10th ST • NEW YORK, NY 10003 phone 212 343 0471 • fax 212 343 0472 51 E 10th ST • NEW YORK, NY 10003 [email protected] • hostlerburrows.com phone 212 343 0471 • fax 212 343 0472 [email protected] • hostlerburrows.com sophistication and elegance particular to the Svenskt Tenn brand.
