Synopsis
German architect Otto Wagner's "Moderne Arhitektur" appeared in four editions between 1896 & 1914. Its appearance not only created a sensation but also presaged a revolution. Historically, it may be viewed as the culmination of 19th-century efforts to create a new architectural style. This translation is based on the text of the 1902 edition, which is expanded & mature in its theoretical formulation, reflecting Wagner's experience with the Secession & his growing professional reputation. With its lavish layout of photographs & vignettes, this volume is a polished, complete polemical work intended for the international architectural community. Chapters: the architect, style, composition, construction, & the practice of art.
