Summary:

Bauhaus artist Friedl Dicker-Brandeis The work of Friedl Dicker-Brandeis (1898–1944) occupies a key position in the broader history of the Austrian avant-garde while also deepening our understanding of modernism. Her work covers an impressive range of media and genres in the visual and applied arts. Influenced by her studies at Vienna’s Kunstgewerbeschule (which later became the University of Applied Arts Vienna), the Itten Private School, and the Bauhaus in Weimar, she worked as a painter, stage designer, architect, designer in Vienna and Berlin, in exile, and as a deportee. This book explores the heterogeneity of Dicker’s work, reconstructs her artistic strategies and references to aesthetic and political discourses from the 1920s to the 1940s, and documents for the first time her works in the collection of the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Portrait of her work and collection catalog, dedicated to the artist, designer, and architect Friedl Dicker-Brandeis Essays by Julie M. Johnson, Robin Rehm, Daniela Stöppel, and others To accompany an exhibition in Vienna and Zurich

Werkporträt Friedl Dicker-Brandeis Das künstlerische Wirken von Friedl Dicker-Brandeis (1898–1944) nimmt eine Schlüsselrolle ein – für eine erweiterte Geschichte der österreichischen Avantgarde, aber auch für eine Vertiefung des Verständnisses der Moderne. Dickers Werk weist eine beeindruckende Bandbreite an Medien und Genres der bildenden und angewandten Kunst auf. Geprägt vom Studium an der Wiener Kunstgewerbeschule, der Itten-Privatschule und am Weimarer Bauhaus, arbeitete sie als Malerin, Bühnenbildnerin, Architektin, Designerin in Wien und Berlin, im Exil und als Deportierte. Das Buch erschließt die Heterogenität von Dickers Werk, rekonstruiert künstlerische Strategien sowie Bezüge auf ästhetische und politische Diskurse der 1920er- bis 1940er-Jahre und dokumentiert erstmals ihre Werke in der Sammlung der Universität für angewandte Kunst Wien. Werkporträt und Sammlungskatalog, der Künstlerin, Designerin und Architektin Friedl Dicker-Brandeis gewidmet Mit Essays von Julie M. Johnson, Robin Rehm, Daniela Stöppel u. a. Erscheint begleitend zu einer Ausstellung in Wien und Zürich
