Art, design, and architecture in Central Europe, 1890-1920Clegg, ElizabethIn this unprecedentedly wide-ranging accountof art, design, and architecture in the complex Central Europe of the Austro-Hungarian Empire during its momentous last decades, Elizabeth Clegg achieves a ... forceful integration of political and cultural developments. Comparing the situation in eight cities - among them Vienna, Prague, Budapest, Cracow, and Zagreb - the author highlights contrasts, rivalries, parallels, and interconnections across this colorful and important region. The book deals with all the chief ethnic/national categories of Austria-Hungary and embraces all the visual arts. Focusing on their public display, appraisal, and consumption, Clegg shows how theharmonious/antagonistic coexistence of institutions, publications, and events gave rise to the dynamic art life of a period that would end in a turning point for Central Europe. As vividly revealed, this was a time and place marked by a simultaneous fear and celebration of ethnic, linguistic, and cultural diversity that has enormous international resonance a century later.Type of material - book ; adult, seriousPublication and manufacture - New Haven (Conn.) ; London : Yale University Press, cop. 2006Language - englishISBN - 0-300-11120-7COBISS.SI-ID - 227386880
