Illustration profonde en couleurs et en n/b. Notes, chronologie, orientation bibliographique, index. A pioneer of art nouveau, Belgian architect Victor Horta (1861-1947) developed a theory of forms in the hope of influencing human behavior by inducing harmony and comfort. A cobbler's son, he built houses for the bourgeoisie and, according to the authors, provocatively evoked the world of labor and industrial production. Although we tend to think of art nouveau as an exotic hothouse flower, Borsi ( Vienna 1900 ) and Italian architect Portoghesi ( Postmodern ) argue that many of Horta's designs have a consciously political meaning, for example, the Maison du Peuple, a communal complex in Brussels, symbolizes an alliance between a workers' movement and reforming industrialists. Featuring hundreds of color and black-and-white photographs and drawings, as well as detailed essays, this beautiful album investigates Horta's musical motifs, gothic and symbolist influences, and his golden decade prior to WW I, after which he dropped out of the modernist movement and reverted to an eclectic classicism. This lavishly illustrated work highlights the brilliant career of Belgian architect Horta, originator of the Art Nouveau Movement. Among the buildings showcasing his innovative exterior and interior designs are the Hallet, Tassel, and Van Eetvelde houses, L'Innovation department store, museums, hospitals, and his ultimate triumph, the Maison du Peuple (Worker's Union Hall), all of which were a marriage of ideological and political factors. The chapters intertwine an informative text with floor plans, scale drawings, and exquisite illustrations of Horta's signature features, including the whiplash, the curve as optical correction, asymmetry, multiple axes, osmotic surfaces, whirling arrangement of space, and transparency. A chronology includes the current status of Horta's buildings. This notable volume is the first translated into English on the life of Horta. Recommended for libraries emphasizing architecture and the decorative arts. - Stephen Allan Patrick, East Tennessee State Univ. Lib., Johnson City Text in French. Mint condition! New.
