OverviewA pioneer of architectural history Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky (1897–2000) entered the modernist canon with her “Frankfurt Kitchen.” She is also considered a pioneer of social architecture, a women’s rights activist, and, last but not least, a heroine of the resistance to the Nazi dictatorship. In this book, recent research in the fields of art history, contemporary history, pedagogy, and gender studies provides a nuanced picture of Schütte-Lihotzky, whose estate is archived at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. The volume explores her rich architectural oeuvre, her transnational experiences and professional networks, her political development as a Communist, and her current reception. It breaks through the mythology to present a rounded picture of Schütte-Lihotzky, an icon of architectural history. Comprehensive publication on the life and work of Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky Cross-disciplinary research contributions by internationally renowned scholars Illuminates Schütte-Lihotzky’s fascinating work alongside the Frankfurt Kitchen and research desiderata – e.g., on her political activities Full Product DetailsAuthor: Marcel Bois , Bernadette ReinholdPublisher: Birkhauser Imprint: Birkhauser Weight: 0.595kg ISBN: 9783035619591ISBN 10: 303561959 Pages: 360 Publication Date: 21 October 2019 Audience: General/trade , General , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Out of stock  The supplier is temporarily out of stock of this item.
