Art Nouveau & Ecology Art Nouveau & Ekologia Jugendstil & Natur ART NOUVEAU & ECOLOGY ART NOUVEAU & EKOLOGIA JUGENDSTIL & NATUR www.artnouveau-net.eu INFORMATION: Réseau Art Nouveau Network, www.artnouveau-net.eu 25, rue Américaine BE - 1060 BRUXELLES T +32 02 543 04 94 F+32 02 538 76 31, [email protected], [email protected] Commonly known as Modernisme in Spain, Jugendstil in Germany, Secession in Austria and Slovenia, and Stile Liberty in Italy, Art Nouveau first developed in Barcelona and Brussels at the end of the 1880s through precursor architects such as Antoni Gaudí and Victor Horta. As modernity enthusiasts, artists of Art Nouveau were seeking to move away from immediate past styles whilst rediscovering the decorative arts of forgotten Middle-Ages or those more exotic forms from Japan and the Far East. Nature’s forms, which are always linked to a specific func- tion, quickly became a major reference for this art which was meant to be essential and close to the needs of modern man. Art nouveauta eli jugendtyyliä kutsutaan eri maissa eri nimillä: Ranskassa ja englanninkielisissä maissa sen nimi on Art Nou- veau, Espanjassa Modernisme, Saksassa Jugendstil, Itävallassa ja Sloveniassa Secession ja Italiassa Stile Liberty. Tyylisuunta sai alkunsa Barcelonassa ja Brysselissä 1880-luvun lopulla Antoni Gaudín ja Victor Hortan kaltaisten uraauurtavien arkkitehtien töistä. Taiteilijat ja arkkitehdit irtautuivat aiemmin käytetyistä tyylisuun- nista ja löysivät uudelleen unohdetun keskiaikaisen käyttötaiteen sekä Japanin ja Kaukoidän eksoottisen muotokielen. Luonnon vaihtelevat muodot olivat tärkeä innoittaja suunnittelijoille, jotka pyrkivät vastaamaan aikalaisten tarpeisiin. ART NOUVEAU ACROss BORDERS ART NOUVEAUTA YMPÄRI EUROOPPaa JUGEndsTIL ÜBER ALLE GRENZEN HInwEG Bekannt als Art Nouveau in Frankreich, Modernisme in Spanien, Secession in Österreich und Slowenien oder Stile Liberty in Italien, entwickelte sich der Jugendstil Ende der 1880er Jahre in Barcelona und Brüssel durch die als Wegbereiter geltenden Architekten Antoni Gaudí und Victor Horta. Begeistert von der Moderne, versuchten die Künstler des Jugendstils, sich von bisherigen Stilarten zu lösen, während sie gleichzeitig die vergessene dekorative Kunst des Mittelalters oder die exotischen Stilelemente aus Japan und dem fernen Osten wiederentdeckten. Die Formen der Natur, die immer mit einer bestimmten Funktion verbunden sind, 03 wurden schnell zum Vorbild für diese Kunst, die sich als wesentlich und nahe an den Bedürfnissen des modernen Menschen verstand. Thanks to the popularity of International Exhibitions and illustrated magazines, the Art Nouveau style quickly spread across Europe, expressed by handicraft (Arts and Crafts, Wiener Werkstätte etc) as well as machine-made goods (Ecole de Nancy, Gustave Serrurier-Bovy). Made famous by iconic artists such as Emile Gallé in Nancy (glassware art), Charles Rennie Mackintosh in Scotland (furniture) and Hector Guimard in Paris (Paris Metropolitan stations), the move- ment mostly died out with the beginning of the First World War in 1914. A COmmITTED and PROFEssIOnaL NETWORK The Réseau Art Nouveau Network brings together more than twenty European institutions collaborating on projects supported by the European Commission’s 2007-2013 Culture Programme. Founded in 1999, the Network aims to study, promote and preserve Art Nouveau in Europe through many activities (exhibitions, publications, conferences and teaching materials) for the general public (including children and those with visual impairment), technical specialists and academics. Kansainvälisten näyttelyiden ja taidelehtien suosion ansiosta art nouveau -liike levisi nopeasti ympäri Eurooppaa niin käyt- tötaiteen (Arts and Crafts, Wiener Werkstätte ym.) kuin teol- lisesti valmistettujen tuotteidenkin (Ecole de Nancy, Gustave Serrurier-Bovy) muodossa. Liikettä tekivät tunnetuksi monet taiteilijat, kuten Emile Gallé Nancyssa (lasitaide), Charles Rennie Mackintosh Skotlannissa (huonekalut) ja Hector Gui- mard Pariisissa (Pariisin metroasemat). Art nouveau alkoi hiipua ensimmäisen maailmansodan alettua vuonna 1914. 04 ASIanTUNTIJOIDEN VERKOSTO Réseau Art Nouveau Network -verkostoon kuuluu yli kak- sikymmentä eurooppalaista laitosta ja museota. Verkoston yhteistyöprojektit ovat Euroopan komission vuosien 2007– 2013 kulttuuriohjelman tukemia. Vuonna 1999 perustetun verkoston tarkoituksena on tutkia, vaalia ja tuoda esiin art nouveau -aikakauden kulttuuriperintöä monin eri tavoin (näyttelyt, julkaisut, konferenssit ja oppimateriaalit). Koh- deryhmään kuuluvat suuri yleisö, erityisryhmät, tekniset asiantuntijat ja tutkijat. Dank der Popularität internationaler Ausstellungen und illustrierter Zeitschriften verbreitete sich der Jugendstil rasch in ganz Europa, sowohl durch das Kunsthandwerk (Arts and Crafts, Wiener Werkstätte usw.) als auch durch industriell gefertigte Waren (Ecole de Nancy, Gustave Serrurier-Bovy). Berühmt geworden durch herausragende Künstler wie Emile Gallé in Nancy (Glaskunst), Charles Rennie Mackintosh in Schottland (Möbel) und Hector Guimard in Paris (Pariser U-Bahnstationen), endete die Bewegung weitgehend mit dem Beginn des Ersten Welt- krieges 1914 EIN ENGAGIERTES Und PROFEssIONELLES NETZWERK Das Réseau Art Nouveau Network verbindet über zwanzig europäische Institutionen. Diese arbeiten an Projekten zusammen, die vom Kulturprogramm 2007-2013 der Europäischen Kommission unterstützt werden. Gegründet 1999, hat das Netzwerk das Ziel, das reiche Jugendstilerbe in Europa weiter zu erforschen, zu fördern und zu bewahren. Vielfältige Aktivitäten (Ausstellungen, Publikationen, Konferenzen und Lehrmaterial) für die Allgemeinheit (insbesondere auch für Kinder und Menschen mit Sehbeeinträchtigung), für Wissenschaftler und Uni- versitäten, tragen dazu bei. 05 More information about the Network’s activities is available on the multilingual website www.artnouveau-net.eu. Here it is possible to sign up for the newsletter and download publications and proceedings of the Network conferences. The website also provides infor- mation about the partner cities, links to other websites and Art Nouveau related events around the world. Professionals and students can benefit from scientific materials related to Art Nouveau, such as the PhD thesis database and the list of documentation centres. Last but not least, the interactive learning tools allow children to read booklets appropriate to their age and teachers can bring their pupils to discover Art Nouveau through online activity sheets. ART NOUVEAU & ECOLOGY 2010-2015 In a time of sustainable development and environmental awareness, Nature, the main source of inspiration in Art Nouveau, remains a most concerning topic. The Réseau Art Nouveau Network’s fourth European project, Art Nouveau & Ecology, seeks to explore the specific connection between Art Nouveau heritage and nature. Lisätietoja verkoston toiminnasta on verkkosivuilla osoittees- sa www.artnouveau-net.eu. Verkkosivuilta voi tilata uutiskirjeen sekä ladata julkaisuja ja verkoston järjestämien konferenssien lyhennelmiä. Sivuilla on myös tietoja yhteistyökaupungeista, linkkejä ja tietoa aiheeseen liittyvistä tapahtumista ympäri maailman. Asiantuntijat ja opiskelijat voivat hyödyntää aiheeseen liittyviä tieteellisiä materiaaleja, kuten väitöskirjatie- dostoa ja dokumentointikeskusten luetteloa. Lisäksi tarjolla on opetusmateriaaleja julkaisujen ja nettipelien muodossa. ART NOUVEAU & EkOLOGIA 2010–2015 Art nouveau taiteilijoiden ja arkkitehtien suurin inspiraationläh- de oli luonto. Luonnon arvo ja sen suojelun tärkeys on nykyisin kaikkien tiedossa. Réseau Art Nouveau Networkin neljäs projekti Art Nouveau & Ecology keskittyy tutkimaan art nouveaun ja 06 luonnon välistä erityistä yhteyttä. Weitere Informationen über die Aktivitäten des Netzwerks stehen auf der mehrsprachigen Website www.artnouveau-net.eu zur Verfügung. Hier kann man sich für den Newsletter anmelden, sowie Publikationen und Berichte der Netzwerkkonferenzen herunterladen. Die Website bietet umfangreiche Informationen über die Partnerstädte, über weltweite Veranstaltungen mit Bezug zum Jugendstil sowie eine relevante Linksammlung. Fachleute und Studenten können wissenschaftliches Material über den Jugendstil weltweit nutzen, wie z.B. die PhD thesis Promotions Datenbank und eine Liste der Dokumentationszentren. Nicht zuletzt stehen für Kinder altersgerecht aufbereitete Inhalte online bereit, und Lehrer können online verfügbare Arbeitsmaterialien nutzen, um ihren Schülern die Epoche des Jugendstils vorzustellen. JUGEndsTIL & NATUR 2010-2015 In einer Zeit, die durch Nachhaltigkeit und Umweltbewusst- sein geprägt ist, bleibt die Natur als bedeutendste Inspira- tionsquelle des Jugendstils ein wichtiges Thema. Das vierte europäische Projekt des Réseau Art Nouveau Netzwerks unter dem Thema „Jugendstil & Natur“ will die besondere Verbindung zwischen dem Jugendstilerbe und der Natur erforschen. 07 COORDInaTOR - KOORDINOIja - KOORDInaTOR : BELGIUM - BELGIA - BELGIEN Direction des Monuments et des Sites de la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale - Directie Monumenten en Landschappen van het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest CO-ORGanISERS - MUUT JÄRJESTÄJÄT - CO-ORGanIsaTOREN : BELGIUM - BELGIA - BELGIEN Musée Horta Saint-Gilles - Hortamuseum Sint-Gillis FINLand - SUOMI - FInnLand Helsingin kaupunginmuseo - Helsinki City Museum FRanCE - Ranska - FRankREICH Ville de Nancy - City of Nancy GERmanY - Saksa - DEUTSCHLand Magistrat der Stadt Bad Nauheim - Bad Nauheim City Council ITALY - ITALIA - ITALIEN Regione Lombardia, Direzione Generale Cultura, Struttura Programmazione

  • At the Confluence of Art Nouveau and Ecclectic Early Modernism in Riga's
    ZDZISŁAWA TOŁŁOCZKO* AT THE CONFLUENCE OF ART NOUVEAU AND ECCLECTIC EARLY MODERNISM IN RIGA’S METROPOLITAN ARCHITECTURE U ZBIEGU ART NOUVEAU I EKLEKTYCZNEGO WCZESNEGO MODERNIZMU W ARCHITEKTURZE METROPOLITALNEJ RYGI Abstract The aim of this paper was to draw attention to the coincidence of streets intersections ending, in general, in corner buildings making up typical and picturesque parts of the townscape of the 19th c. European cities, including the central quarter of Riga. This type of town-planning establishments perfectly compose with the art and aesthetics of Art Nouveau in Riga. An additional and very important component of the town- planning-architectonic solutions is the decorative finial of the corner houses (not only inJugendstil , but also the Latvian national romanticism) creating a harmonious composition in respect of art and town-planning, ideally completing the townscape of this Baltic metropolis. Keywords: Latvia, Riga, Cracow, New York, London, Berlin, history of architecture and city-planning, Art Nouveau, Modern Art, Jugendstil, National Romanticism Streszczenie Celem prezentowanego artykułu jest zwrócenie uwagi na koincydencję zbiegów ulic zakończonych na ogół wyraźnymi narożami, tworzącymi typowe, a jednocześnie malownicze, fragmenty krajobrazu dziewiętna- stowiecznych miast europejskich, w tym również śródmieścia Rygi. Tego rodzaju założenia urbanistyczne doskonale komponują się ze sztuką i estetyką Art Nouveau w Rydze. Dodatkową i jednocześnie niezwy- kle ważną komponentą rozwiązań urbanistyczno-architektonicznych są umieszczone na narożach ozdobne zwieńczenia (nie tylko w stylu Jugendstil’u, ale także łotewskiego narodowego romantyzmu) komponujące się wspólnie i harmonijnie pod względem artystycznym i urbanistycznym, uzupełniając znakomicie pejzaż tej nadbałtyckiej metropolii.

Modernism Without Modernity: The Rise of Modernist Architecture in Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, 1890-1940 Abstract : Why did machine-age modernist architecture diffuse to Latin America so quickly after its rise in Continental Europe during the 1910s and 1920s? Why was it a more successful movement in relatively backward Brazil and Mexico than in more affluent and industrialized Argentina? After reviewing the historical development of architectural modernism in these three countries, several explanations are tested against the comparative evidence. Standards of living, industrialization, sociopolitical upheaval, and the absence of working-class consumerism are found to be limited as explanations. As in Europe, Modernism

D. Boyer usée de del’École Nancy, cliché © Nancy, m « Une villa moderne » Ce titre est celui de l’un des premiers articles 1 consacrés par la presse à la villa Majorelle en 1902. L’auteur y manifeste son admiration pour le caractère novateur de cette maison construite « par un artiste pour un artiste ». La villa Majorelle est élevée dans les années 1901-1902 , dans ce qui est encore la banlieue peu urbanisée de Nancy. Louis Majorelle décide de construire, au milieu d’un parc arboré, ses ateliers et sa villa. Il dénomme celle-ci Jika en l’honneur de son épouse Jeanne Kretz (initiales JK). Cette villa est le fruit d’une collaboration entre un architecte, Henri Sauvage , qui débute sa carrière, et un industriel d’art déjà reconnu, Louis Majorelle . Les deux hommes se connaissent car ils fréquentent les mêmes lieux parisiens, l’atelier du sculpteur Alexandre Charpentier en particulier. Ils y côtoient d’autres artistes, tels Hector Guimard et le peintre Francis Jourdain, qui participa à la décoration de la villa Majorelle.

  • Adolf Loos, a Controversial Architect -Adolf Loos’ Architectural Position Presents a Complex Relationship with Art Nouveau
    -In the last session, we studied Art Nouveau. -Adolf Loos, a controversial architect -Adolf Loos’ architectural position presents a complex relationship with Art Nouveau. -On one hand, he appears to reject Art Nouveau’s decorative tendency, Art Nouveau’s aesthetic ideal of the total work of art. -On the other hand, Adolf Loos seems to still accept the significance of ornament. -Art Nouveau: ornament completes form -Loos somehow seems to embrace this idea of ornament when it comes to the design of civic buildings. Adolf Loos (1870-1933) -the son of a stonemason -studied at the Imperial State technical College in Vienna and the Dresden College of technology -traveled to America to visit his uncle in Philadelphia -admiration of American culture -Louis Sullivan “Ornament in Architecture” (1892) Advocated temporary abandonment of ornament until the architect was better able to manipulate unadorned forms Adolf Loos (1870-1933) Architectural position -Loos reacted strongly against Art nouveau’s and Jugendstil’s attempt to replace Beaux-Arts eclecticism with what he saw as a superficial system of ornament -rejection of Gesamkunstwerk (especially his article “Poor Little Richman”) -rejection of the very concept of ‘art’ when applied to the design of objects for everyday use, and rejection of the artist as the giver of Form (Gestalt) to machine age. And thus attack on the Werkbund -Building versus Architecture The building is a useful object and therefore not architecture (art).

As an illustrator, architect and educator his influence was unequalled. Arguably the most important German designer of his generation, his work was ubiquitous in the technical and professional publica- tions of his day. For five decades, Paul’s reputation was unparal- leled among progressive German artists. As a young man he was a member of the Munich avant-garde responsible for the creation of the Jugendstil. As a designer of furniture and interiors, he achieved a commercial success unmatched by his illustrious con- temporaries. In the light of his professional accomplishments, he was the most influential German architect of his generation, a fig- ure of international significance. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Adolf Meyer and Kem Weber were among his students, and their work developed from the practices of his atelier. Indeed, as director of Distributors the Vereinigte Staatsschulen für freie und angewandte Kunst in Berlin he presided over an institution that rivaled the Bauhaus as Brockhaus Commission a center of progressive instruction in the arts. Kreidlerstraße 9 Despite the renown he enjoyed at the height of his career, Paul’s D-70806 Kornwestheim name has been largely absent from the standard histories of the Germany modern movement.

Known in Germany as Jugendstil, Art Nouveau was an international movement in architecture and design between 1890 and 1914 encompassing multiple idioms and diverging design philosophies across Europe. While the bulk of twentieth-century scholarship myopically addresses Art Nouveau as an elite, sinuous, and superficial art form, profound social consciousness united many of its exponents through their concern for housing and aesthetic democratization.[1] In conjunction with Art Nouveau's centennial, scholars are beginning to uncover the complex local relationships and conditions affecting stylistic and ideological development.

  • Gino Severini and the Symbolist Aesthetics of His
    GINO SEVERINI AND THE SYMBOLIST AESTHETICS OF HIS FUTURIST DANCE IMAGERY, 1910-1915 by SHANNON N. PRITCHARD (Under the Direction of Evan Firestone) ABSTRACT This thesis examines Gino Severini’s dance imagery produced between 1910 and 1915 and its relationship to late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Symbolism. It is proposed in this paper that the influence of Symbolism, including the phenomenon of synesthesia, was a consistent presence throughout Severini’s artistic production during this period. Surrounded by artists and writers within the neo-Symbolist milieu of Paris, Severini was introduced to Symbolist literature and contemporary philosophy, both of which influenced his approach to Futurism. The resultant amalgamation of Symbolist and Futurist aesthetic theories is analyzed in the context in which these dance images were produced. Taking into consideration Severini’s personal and artistic relationships, along with his theoretical writings, a more complete understanding of his Futurist works from this period is possible.
