  • JOSEF HOFFMANN Progress Through Beauty
    Advanced Press Release JOSEF HOFFMANN Progress Through Beauty Opening Wednesday, 9 December 2020, 7 p.m. Exhibition Venue MAK Exhibition Hall MAK, Stubenring 5, 1010 Vienna Exhibition Dates 10 December 2020 – 18 April 2021 Opening Hours Tue 10 a.m.–9 p.m., Wed–Sun 10 a.m.–6 p.m. To celebrate his 150th birthday the MAK is honoring the architect, designer, teacher, exhibition organizer, and cofounder of the Wiener Werkstätte Josef Hoffmann (1870– 1956) with the most comprehensive retrospective of his entire oeuvre ever shown. Hoffmann cultivated an exemplary modern lifestyle model and focused on aesthetics and beauty as the central parameters of modern design. The exhibition JOSEF HOFFMANN: Progress Through Beauty revisits every facet of the almost 60-year creative output produced by this influential global pioneer in architecture and design around 1900 and enriches the systematic research into and dissemination of his legacy. With an initially puristic design vocabulary, Josef Hoffmann carved out his position as one of the protagonists of Viennese Modernism. His ideal of the Gesamtkunstwerk—or total work of art—and his outstanding buildings like Stoclet House in Brussels (1905– 1911), now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, left a mark on the architectural and artistic landscape both nationally and internationally. Although this all-round designer has featured in every important exhibition on Viennese Modernism, only sections of his oeuvre have been analyzed in full. To mark this year’s anniversary the exhibition’s team of curators—Matthias Boeckl, Rainald Franz, and Christian Witt-Dörring—set themselves the task of closing the gaps that still exist in the research by using at times unknown sources and by updating his catalogue raisonné.

  • Josef Hoffmann—Koloman Moser
    Press Release JOSEF HOFFMANN—KOLOMAN MOSER Opening Sunday, 27 May 2018, 12:00 p.m. Exhibition Venue Josef Hoffmann Museum, Brtnice* náměstí Svobody 263, 588 32 Brtnice, CZ * A joint branch of the Moravian Gallery in Brno and MAK, Vienna Exhibition Dates 30 May – 28 October 2018 Opening Hours June: Tue–Sun 10 a.m.–5 p.m. July–August: daily 10 a.m.–5 p.m. September–October: Tue–Sun 10 a.m.–5 p.m. as well as upon prior arrangement by telephone Last entry: 4 p.m. This year’s annual exhibition JOSEF HOFFMANN—KOLOMAN MOSER (30 May – 28 Oc- tober 2018) in Josef Hoffmann Museum in Brtnice, a joint branch of the Moravian Gallery in Brno and MAK Vienna, is dedicated to relations between two artist friends and pre- eminent designers of Viennese Modernism. The works of Koloman Moser (1868–1918) are considered the artistic antithesis of Josef Hoffmann’s (1870–1956) when it comes to the architecture of their designs: while Hoffmann remained a tectonically austere creator, Ko- loman Moser always incorporated a decorative, painterly element. Designs and objects from the areas of graphics, glass, and ceramics are displayed in the exhibition so as to place these exceptional artists’ works in dialogue with one another and render their individual charac- teristics visible. The careers and works of both creators are closely linked. Both were founding members of the Vienna Secession and, from 1899 onwards, both taught at the Vienna School of Arts and Crafts (today’s University for Applied Arts Vienna). Together with the industrialist Fritz Waerndorfer, they founded the Wiener Werkstätte in 1903, thus having a crucial influence on the applied arts in Vienna at the turn of the twentieth century.

  • Výroční Zpráva Moravské Galerie V Brně Za Rok 2006
    THE MORAVIAN GALLERY IN BRNO IN 2011 (The full text of the 2011 Annual Report of the Moravian Gallery in Brno is available at the MG website www.moravska-galerie.cz) The activities of the Moravian Gallery in Brno in 2011 were characterized by the three flagship projects that we successfully implemented: opening the Dušan Jurkovič House to the general public, a series of large exhibitions commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of our art museum being established in its current form and the opening of the ―Images of the Mind‖ exhibition which was extremely demanding in terms of research and organization. These key activities were supported by several others which were no less important: we published the greatest number of accompanying publications in the history of the gallery, we finished a long-term research project based on which we were awarded a considerable number of so-called RIV points given the conditions in which we worked; under the title The Traces of Modernism we launched another collaborative project with the Museum of Applied/Contemporary Art in Vienna supported by an EU grant as part of cross-border collaboration Czech Republic – Austria. And within the Moravian Gallery in Brno a new methodological centre started, which specializes in the presentation and reception of visual culture in art museums. In collaboration with the Universalmuseum Joanneum in Graz and the Museum of Art in Lodz we became involved in preparing a European network of medium- sized art museums which is to boost the mobility of collections, international projects and sharing experience in all areas of museum work.

On the Use and Effect of Ar- chitecture in the Josef Hoffmann Museum in Brtnice, a joint branch of the Moravian Gallery in Brno and the MAK, is dedicated to the relationship of Josef Hoffmann (1870–1965) with his teacher Otto Wagner (1841–1918). The occasion for the exhibi- tion is provided by the anniversary of the death of Otto Wagner, the centenary of which is approaching in 2018. Decisive for Hoffmann’s career was the promotion provided by Otto Wagner: during his training in the Spezialschule für Architektur at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, as well as in the context of their joint work in Wagner’s studio and in the Secession. Wagner’s support was also a decisive factor in Hoffmann’s appoint- ment as professor at the Kunstgewerbeschule. The interaction in terms of the creative methods of the two architects, which was the result of their close cooperation, is pre- sented on the basis of approx.

  • Bilateral Network Sof Design
    Bilateral Network sof Design Innovations in design from modernism c. 1900 to digital modernism PROJECT PARTNERS Museum for Applied Arts/Contemporary Art in Vienna (MAK), Moravian Gallery in Brno, the town of Brtnice www.mak.at, www.moravska-galerie.cz, www.brtnice.cz THE PROJECT IS SCHEDULED FOR 2017-2019 The main objective of the project Bilateral Networks of Design. Innovations in design from modernism c. 1900 to digital modernism is the preservation, protection and mediation of the joint cultural heritage of Moravia and north-eastern Austria in the period 1890-1938. The linking of cultural activities of the town of Brtnice, the Moravian Gallery in Brno and the Museum for Applied Arts/Contemporary Art, Vienna (MAK) within their buildings promotes a better international sharing of information and education, contributes to a deeper understanding and cross-border collaboration between the two countries, supports the positive identification of local people with their cultural heritage and also promotes tourism. The project accentuates the joint roots of modernism in the Czech lands and Austria that resulted from the collaboration between artists and architects in these countries (Josef Hoffmann, Otto Wagner, Koloman Moser, Adolf Loos and others). In this way, the project presents and acquaints the public with the revolutionary development of central European culture in the early 20th century. The principal outcomes of the project include exhibitions in the Jurkovič House in Brno and in the Josef Hoffmann Museum in Brtnice, a two-part series of shows in the Museum for Applied Arts/Contemporary Art, Vienna (MAK) and an innovative modification to the permanent exhibition of old art in the Governor's Palace in Brno, including a partial reconstruction of the exhibition rooms and adjacent corridors.

  • Annual Report 2007
    THE MORAVIAN GALLERY IN 2007 (The full text of the 2007 Annual Report of the Moravian Gallery in Brno is available at the gallery website www.moravska-galerie.cz). More than anything else in 2007 we were busy discussing the future development of the Moravian Gallery in Brno. The basic framework of our activities in this regard is the endeavour towards achieving balance and adequacy. As it has become clear that any future spatial expansion is not feasible, we shall concentrate on a more efficient use of the existing buildings, completing their refurbishment, and opening to the public the newly acquired structures within the workings of the Moravian Gallery in Brno as a comprehensive art museum operating at a regional, national and international level on a par with similar institutions in Europe. During 2007 we were engaged in the advanced phases of negotiations concerning our application within the EEA/Norwegian Financial Mechanisms, the success of which is a precondition for the timely completion of the reconstruction and revitalization of the house of Dušan Samo Jurkovič and the launching of the planned Dušan Samo Jurkovič Centre, and in drawing up the application for a subsidy under the Culture 2007 programme which will enable us to expand the activities in the Josef Hoffmann Museum in Brtnice. A special purpose subsidy allowed us to start the reconstruction of the interiors and, in particular, the staircase hall in the house of Dušan Samo Jurkovič and purchase an important set of furniture designed by the architect along the lines of his house design and consequently intended to complement the interior furnishing of the building.
