Book SynopsisFelice Rix-Ueno studied under Josef Hoffmann, a co-founder of the Wiener Werkstätte (1903–1932). Inspired by the Japanese formal language, she formed her own style, which was expressed in particularly imaginative fabric and wallpaper patterns, fashion and home accessories, and wall paintings. After her marriage to the Japanese architect Isaburo Ueno, she moved to Japan in 1926. There they created joint works that received much attention, such as the Star Bar in Kyoto, which was shown in the famous exhibition Modern Architecture in New York’s MoMa in 1932. Felice Rix-Ueno, who was already prominently represented in the successful MAK exhibition Women Artists of the Wiener Werkstätte, is given a substantial monographic treatment for the first time outside Japan with this catalog. Important artist of the Wiener Werkstätte and beyond Fabric patterns, wallpapers, fashion and home accessories, commercial graphics, and wall paintings Large exhibition at the MAK Vienna, 22 Nov 2023–21 Apr 2024

Arnoldsche Tin-Glaze and Image Culture: The MAK Maiolica
Book SynopsisThe Museum of Applied Arts (MAK) in Vienna holds a unique collection of Italian maiolica from the 15th to the 18th century, which is now being published almost in its entirety for the very first time. Maiolica tableware, Italy’s luxury export, spread to the courts of northern Europe from the early 16th century. Today, the MAK’s holdings from former imperial, ecclesiastical, aristocratic, and private ownership enter into a dialogue with maiolica from well-known Austrian and Central European collections. Timothy Wilson, professor emeritus at Balliol College Oxford and former Keeper of Western Art at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, and Rainald Franz, curator at MAK, together with other experts provide an extensive insight into the development of maiolica in its cultural and historical context. Thus a scholarly exploration of one of the best collections of maiolica in the world has now been scientifically examined for the very first time. With contributions by Rainald Franz, Michael Göbl, Nikolaus Hofer, and Timothy Wilson.Table of ContentsLilli Hollein DIRECTOR’S PREFACE 7 Timothy Wilson MAIOLICA: A QUINTESSENTIAL ART FORM OF RENAISSANCE ITALY 9 Rainald Franz THE MAK MAIOLICA COLLECTION IN HISTORICAL CONTEXT 12 Nikolaus Hofer RARE BEAUTY: RENAISSANCE MAIOLICA IN AUSTRIAN ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIND COMPLEXES 18 Michael Göbl AUSTRIAN COATS OF ARMS ON IMPORTED ITALIAN MAIOLICA 22 Timothy Wilson THE CATALOGUE CASE 1 THE CREDENZA 32 CASE 2 FIFTEENTH CENTURY FLORENTINE PHARMACY JARS 46 CASE 3 LUSTREWARE FROM SPAIN 50 CASE 4 DERUTA 52 CASE 5 THE BEGINNINGS OF ISTORIATO PAINTING 60 CASE 6 FAENZA 66 CASE 7 NICOLA DA URBINO 74 CASE 8 FRANCESCO XANTO AVELLI 78 CASE 9 URBINO CONTEMPORARIES OF NICOLA AND XANTO 84 CASE 10 FRANCESCO DURANTINO 88 CASE 11 MID SIXTEENTH CENTURY ISTORIATO IN THE DUCHY OF URBINO 98 CASE 12 ORNAMENTAL MAIOLICA: THE URBINO TRADITION 108 CASE 13 WHITE GROUND GROTESQUE PAINTING IN URBINO 116 CASE 14 LUSTREWARE OF GUBBIO 126 CASE 15 “FAENZA WHITE” 134 CASE 16 SIXTEENTH CENTURY AND LATER MAIOLICA IN TUSCANY 138 CASE 17 VENICE 144 CASE 18 THE POTTERY OF IZNIK AND ITS IMPACT IN ITALY 152 CASE 19 IPPOLITO ROMBALDONI OF URBANIA 156 CASE 20 FERDINANDO MARIA CAMPANI AND THE HOLÍČ FACTORY 162 CASE 21 CASTELLI 168 CASE 22 NORTH ITALIAN FACTORIES OF THE BAROQUE PERIOD 176 CASE 23 DEVOTIONAL OBJECTS 182 CASE 24 STORIES FROM THE BIBLE 186 CASE 25 STORIES FROM ANCIENT HISTORY 192 CASE 26 TALES FROM OVID 198 CASE 27 GRAPHIC SOURCES FOR ISTORIATO MAIOLICA 206 CASE 28 ARMORIAL SERVICES 216 CASE 29 BELLE DONNE 226 CASE 30 MAIOLICA FOR NEW MOTHERS 230 CASE 31 MAIOLICA FOR THE PHARMACY 234 CASE 32 DIASPORA: THE SPREAD OF I TALIAN MAIOLICA PRODUCTION ABROAD 242 CASE 33 MAIOLICA FROM NEUKLOSTER 246 CASE 34 MAIOLICA FROM THE OBIZZI ESTE COLLECTION 254 CASE 35 MEDICI PORCELAIN 258 CASE 36 INCISED SLIPWARE 260 CASE 37 NINETEENTH CENTURY HISTORICISM 262 CASE 38 A CONTEMPORARY ITALIAN MAIOLICA ARTIST: MARINO MORETTI 268 Concordance 270 Bibliography 272 Index 279 Photo Credits 284 Acknowledgements 285

Birkhauser MISSING LINK: Strategien einer
Book SynopsisConceptual architecture from the 1970s This book offers an in-depth look at the work of one of the most important phenomena of Austria’s avant-garde art and architecture scene of the 1970s, MISSING LINK. The group founded by Angela Hareiter, Otto Kapfinger, and Adolf Krischanitz took on interdisciplinary projects that sought lines of connection between people, architecture, art, urbanity, and the social fabric, and expanded the repertoire of architecture to include experimental concepts. The result was a multi-layered and highly regarded body of work that includes artistic installations, objects, paintings, drawings, and posters, as well as urban sociological studies, actions, and experimental television films. This volume combines a comprehensive ‘catalogue raisonné’ with numerous, mostly hitherto unpublished images. Accompanying a major exhibition at the Vienna MAK from 11 May to 2 October 2022 First monograph on the Viennese experimental group MISSING LINK Installations, objects, posters, paintings, drawings, in mostly previously unpublished images
