Peasant Art in Austria and Hungary (Classic Reprint)
Author: Charles Holme
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780331913248
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Excerpt from Peasant Art in Austria and Hungary N O fine line of demarcation can be drawn to indicate where the peasant art of one nation begins and another ends; yet the practised eye soon learns to differentiate, for though there are certain similarities there are at the same time wide and distinct divergencies. The motive of a design may be the same, but the methods of carrying it out may be various. This variation is due to subconscious racial instinct. There is, moreover, an involuntary personal note which distinguishes the objects made by the peasants of one and the same race, this being particularly the case in the Slav group. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

"Textiles, Fashion, and Design Reform in Austria-Hungary Before the First World War "
Author: Rebecca Houze
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351546880
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
Filling a critical gap in Vienna 1900 studies, this book offers a new reading of fin-de-si?e culture in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy by looking at the unusual and widespread preoccupation with embroidery, fabrics, clothing, and fashion - both literally and metaphorically. The author resurrects lesser known critics, practitioners, and curators from obscurity, while also discussing the textile interests of better known figures, notably Gottfried Semper and Alois Riegl. Spanning the 50-year life of the Dual Monarchy, this study uncovers new territory in the history of art history, insists on the crucial place of women within modernism, and broadens the cultural history of Habsburg Central Europe by revealing the complex relationships among art history, women, and Austria-Hungary. Rebecca Houze surveys a wide range of materials, from craft and folk art to industrial design, and includes overlooked sources-from fashion magazines to World's Fair maps, from exhibition catalogues to museum lectures, from feminist journals to ethnographic collections. Restoring women to their place at the intersection of intellectual and artistic debates of the time, this book weaves together discourses of the academic, scientific, and commercial design communities with middle-class life as expressed through popular culture.
