At the turn of the twentieth century, Vienna emerged as a great
cultural centre that stood at the forefront of developments in
music, psychology, and the natural sciences. Equally influential,
and still tremendously popular today, are the designs of the Wiener
Werkstatte, or Vienna Workshop, a group that was at the heart of
the city's cultural scene and whose collaborators included such
luminaries as the architect Josef Hoffman, the designer Koloman
Moser, and the painters Gustav Klimt, Oskar Kokoschka, and Egon
Schiele. This guide to the arts and crafts of fin-de-siecle Vienna
is an excellent introduction to their work in all media - from
architecture, furniture, ceramics, and glass, to silver, fashion,
and textiles, bookbinding, toys, painting, and the graphic arts -
as well as a survey of the cultural development of this pivotal
period.
