Koloman Moser
Kolo Moser war einer der bedeutendsten Universalkünstler im Wien der Jahrhundertwende: er zählt zu den führenden Vertretern des Jugendstils. Sein Werk umfasst Malerei, Grafik und Kunsthandwerk sowie u. a. Mode- und Möbelentwürfe und Designs für Beleuchtungskörper, Bühnendekorationen, Glasfenster, Buchillustrationen und sogar Banknoten. Als Schrittmacher der Kunst seiner Zeit war er Gründungsmitglied der Wiener Secession und etablierte 1903 die Wiener Werkstätte, gemeinsam mit dem Architekten Josef Hoffmann und dem Industriellen Fritz Waerndorfer. Das Ziel dieser Produktionsgemeinschaft bildender Künstler war die Realisierung des Gesamtkunstwerks auf handwerklich höchstem Niveau. Rund 400 Objekte, systematisch präsentiert und durch Essays erläutert, eröffnen einen neuen Blick auf sein beeindruckendes Lebenswerk.

Koloman Moser
"Admired by contemporaries as an artistic 'jack-of-all-trades', Koloman Moser (1868-1918) is regarded today as one of the most important representatives of the Viennese Secession of around 1900. As a graphic artist and designer Moser was unparalleled in his artistic diversity, creating furniture, textiles, and objects - for the Wiener Werkstätte among others - that are icons of Modernism, as well as leaving behind an impressive oeuvre of paintings"--Publisher's website.
Reforming Women's Fashion, 1850-1920
This work focuses on the efforts toward reforming women's dress that took place in Europe and America in the latter half of the 18th century and the first decade of the 20th century, and the types of garments adopted by women to overcome the challenges posed by fashionable dress. It considers the many advocates for reform and examines their motives, their arguments for change, and how they promoted improvements in women's fashion. Though there was no single overarching dress reform movement, it reveals similarities among the arguments posed by diverse groups of reformers, including especially the equation of reform with an ideal image of improved health. Drawing on a variety of primary and secondary sources in the USA and Europe - including the popular press, advice books for women, allopathic and alternative medical literature, and books on aesthetics, art, health, and physical education - the text makes a significant contribution to costume studies, social history, and women's studies.

Wiener Werkstätte Jewelry
The jewelry of the Wiener Werkstätte blurs the lines between gorgeous ornament and miniature sculpture The Wiener Werkstätte, or Vienna Workshops, was founded in 1903. The firm's artistic cofounders, Josef Hoffmann and Koloman Moser, subscribed to the English Arts and Crafts ideal of exceptionally well-made objects designed by artists and executed by specialized craftsmen. Following the example of near contemporaries René Lalique and Louis Comfort Tiffany, Hoffmann and Moser shared the belief that jewelry should be valued for its artistic merit and not simply for its monetary value. This opulent publication highlights masterpieces created by the Wiener Werkstätte between 1903 and the early 1920s. It features significant pieces by Josef Hoffmann, Koloman Moser, Carl Otto Czeschka and Dagobert Peche, among others. Supplemental materials include relevant periodicals, design drawings and photographs of prominent clients.
