  • Overview

    (English / German)

    Around 1900, Germany was the main centre for the production of Art Nouveau tiles in Europe. Hallways were regarded as status symbols, and the entranceway became like a calling card. Today, few people are aware that many original tiled walls from that period have been preserved in Berlin. Jugendstil im Quadrat presents 120 fascinating tiles, explains their motifs, and sets them in the context of Art Nouveau ornamentation. The plant theme is particularly widespread: abstract or naturalistic depictions of flowers and trees unfold their full beauty in the square format. This book is the first to document historical Berlin tile paintings, most of which are not listed and therefore at risk.

    • First publication about Art Nouveau tiles in Berlin
    • Bilingual descriptions of the widespread plant and tree symbolism in art nouveau
    • With works by Henry van de Velde, Anna Gasteiger

    Deutschland war um 1900 das führende Zentrum für die Herstellung von Jugendstilfliesen in Europa. Hausflure galten als Statussymbole, das Entrée wurde als eine Art Visitenkarte gesehen. Bis heute wenig bekannt ist, dass in Berlin zahlreiche originale Fliesenspiegel aus dieser Zeit erhalten geblieben sind.

    Jugendstil im Quadrat stellt 120 dieser faszinierenden Fliesen vor, erläutert ihre Motive und ordnet sie in den Kontext der Jugendstilornamentik ein. Besonders prägend ist das Pflanzenthema: Abstrakte oder naturalistische Darstellungen von Blumen und Bäumen entfalten im quadratischen Format ihre ganze Schönheit. Erstmals dokumentiert dieses Buch die historischen Berliner Fliesenbilder, die meist nicht unter Denkmalschutz stehen, und dadurch vom Verschwinden bedroht sind.

    • Erste Publikation zum Thema Jugendstilfliesen in Berlin
    • Zweisprachige Beschreibungen der im Jugendstil verbreiteten Pflanzen- und Baumsymbolik
    • Mit Werken von Henry van de Velde und Anna Gasteiger
