Text: English (translation)
Original Language: German
The English-language edition of Josef Hoffmann: das architecktonischeWerk (Salzburg, Austria: Residenz Verlag, 1982), this book is the first comprehensive examination of one of the pioneers of modern architecture and design. Hoffmann (1870-1956), a founder of the Secession movement and the Wiener Werstatte, is influential to this day. Sekler, an architect and scholar who knew Hoffmann, has produced a monograph of exhaustive research complete with an illustrated catalog identifying over 500 of the architect's known works. Over 300 illustrations enhance the text, which surveys Hoffmann's life and work. An important and highly recommended book. Edward H. Teague, Univ. of Florida Libs., Gainesville
