Adolf Loos, Josef Hoffmann, and Otto Wagner have been widely acclaimed in recent celebrations of turn of the century Viennese art, architecture, and furniture design. But until now little has been known about the other architects who gave meaning to the term "Viennese style." This collection of drawings and sketches by Otto Wagner's three most gifted students provides a fascinating new source of documentary material on the early modern period. Published for the first time, the drawings include projects and executed designs ranging from apartment houses to villas, furniture, textiles and glassware, and achieve a graphic quality that has rarely been equaled. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 240 pages.

Hardback. Condition: New. When the Forth Bridge opened on 4 March 1890, it was the longest railway bridge in the world and the first large structure made of steel. Crossing the wide Firth of Forth west of Edinburgh in Scotland, it represents one of the greatest engineering triumphs of Victorian Britain, man's victory over the intractable topography of land and water. Not surprisingly, such a vigorous rebuff of the natural order was condemned at the time by those late Victorians who resisted the march of technology, and William Morris described the Bridge as the "supremest specimen of all ugliness". In response, Benjamin Baker insisted that its beauty lay in its functional elegance. Contrasting the bridge with the only comparable structure of the period, the Eiffel Tower, he concluded: "The Eiffel Tower is a foolish piece of work, ugly, ill-proportioned and of no real use to anyone." But the beauty and fascination of the Forth Bridge lies not simply in its functional performance, but in its scale and power. Over a mile long and higher than the dome of St. Peter's in Rome, it rivals the natural phenomena that the philosophers of the 18th century identified as sources of sublime beauty. Immanuel Kant pointed to hurricanes, boundless oceans and high waterfalls as objects of sublime contemplation, "because they raise the forces of the soul above the heights of the vulgar commonplace, and discover within us a power of resistance of quite another kind, which gives us courage to be able to measure ourselves against the seeming omnipotence of nature". In the 19th century the awe-inspiring feats of nature were rivalled by the inventions of the engineers, and the thrill of the waterfall or the lightning flash was eclipsed by the sight of the roaring locomotive dashing across the majestic span of the Forth Bridge.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 12,5 x 18 cm, 192 Seiten mit 120 farbigen Abbildungen, Leinen, Titel- und Rückenprägung, mit Klapptafel - Der britische Künstler Antony Gormley hat eigens für die große Deichtorhalle zur Documenta-Zeit eine neue, große, spektakuläre Installation, das »Horizon Field Hamburg« entwickelt. Der Besucher betritt die Nordhalle der Deichtorhallen und sieht sich mit einem 2.500 qm großen und bis zu 19 m hohen, fast leeren Raum konfrontiert. In diesem leeren Raum lädt eine weite, schwarze, spiegelnde, schwebende Ebene siebeneinhalb Meter über dem Erdboden zu neuen Erfahrungen ein. »Horizon Field Hamburg« orientiert und verbindet die Wahrnehmung des Gehens, Fühlens, Hörens und Sehens neu. Diese persönliche beziehungsweise kollektive Erfahrung vermittelt sich durch Vibration, Sound und Widerspiegelung. Das Projekt kann insgesamt als ein waagerecht im Raum aufgespanntes Gemälde aufgefasst werden, auf dem die Besucher zu Figuren auf einem frei schwebenden und definierten Grund werden.
