The New Vision For The New Architecture
The modernist architects, artists and designers of early 20th century Europe sought abstract perfection, and photography was the perfect tool to capture the new visual experiments. Czechoslovakia was a major crucible for innovation in the inter-war years, and this catalogue of some 150 images chronicles both the big names of Czech modernism – most notably the programme of design, architecture and corporate identity created for the giant Bata shoe company – and numerous lesser-known projects.
