Horta and the grammar of Art Nouveau
Victor Horta en de grammatica van de art nouveau biedt een vernieuwende en grondige analyse van de architecturale aanpak van Victor Horta, de Belgische architect wiens creaties tussen 1893 en 1905 baanbrekend waren voor de architectuur van de art nouveau. In dit boek, onder redactie van Iwan Strauven (professor architectuurgeschiedenis, ULB) en Benjamin Zurstrassen (directeur van het Hortamuseum in Brussel), is nieuw onderzoek samengebracht van nationale en internationale experts in het werk van Victor Horta
"Horta and the Grammar of Art Nouveau offers an innovative analysis of the architectural approach of Victor Horta, the Belgian architect whose creations between 1893 and 1905 were seminal for the development of Art Nouveau architecture. The first part of the book sheds a new light on the toolbox of Victor Horta by focusing on the architectural sources of one specific work, the Tassel house. It gives an insight into where and how Horta conceived his designs. The second part discusses fundamental themes of Horta's architecture, such as the rhetorical use of structure, the innovative use of materials, and the use of light in the development of the dynamic plan. The third part explores the relation between Horta's invention of Art Nouveau and the colonial enterprise of King Leopold II. This publication is illustrated with maps, plans, and unpublished photographic material commissioned by Victor Horta." -- Provided by Publisher
