Muster und Moderne Buchkatalog

Constructivism and geometric abstraction are evident not only in the visual arts, but also in the design of the 1920s. Ornamentation painted or sprayed onto jugs, vases and cake platters rendered the avantgarde appropriate for daily use - and transformed them into coveted collectors' items to the present day. The collection of Fritz Zuschlag and Bodo Wieneke-Zuschlag focuses on the theme of abstraction in art and in practical application. Furthermore, pieces ranging from figurative items from the Cologne Progressives artists group through to New Objectivity convey the diversity of a tremendously fruitful era in art history. This book presents the Zuschlag-Wieneke Collection for the first time.
