Abstract

Co-founder with Josef Hoffmann of the Wiener Werkstatte, Koloman Moser furnished Viennese homes with a simplicity and elegance that contrasted with the city's baroque decadence at the time. This new exhibition catalogue introduces readers hundreds of colour illustrations, showcasing the artist's design concepts for entire rooms including inlaid furniture, dinnerware, vases and wall hangings. The book traces Moser's artistic development as he branched into public projects, designing stamps, banknotes, and the glorious windows of the Otto Wagner Church in Steinhof. Readers are also treated to samples of Moser's paintings - landscapes, portraits and mythological scenes that are characterised by their extraordinary colour. Enhanced with photographs from the artists private life, many never before published, this monograph presents the full range of Moser's contributions to the world of art and design.
