Beschreibung

As treasure troves of creativity, the homes of artists reflect the intellectual worlds of their creators. Starting with the Villa Stuck in Munichthe aesthetic, conceptual cosmos and lifes work of the aristocratic artist Franz von Stuckthis unique volume integrates the artists house as a category into the international context and is the first to assign these buildings the status of major works. About twenty examples bring to life the fascination that these artistic fantasies hold for art lovers, including both existing projects and some which, although they have been lost, were of unique importance in their day and still retain their charisma. Along with paintings, sculptures, and photographs closely related to the houses, plans and models convey the correlation between art and life as well as the kind of harmony of the arts expressed in Richard Wagners historical concept of the total work of art. Houses featured (selection): Sir John Soanes Museum, London; William Morris Red House, Bexleyheath; Louis Comfort Tiffanys Tiffany House, New York City; Mortimer Menpess flat, London; the Fernand Khnopff Villa, Brussels; Jacques Majorelles villa and garden, Marrakesh; Kurt Schwitters MERZbau, Hannover; Max Ernsts house, Arizona
