About this book

Bauhaus artist Friedl Dicker-Brandeis


The work of Friedl Dicker-Brandeis (1898-1944)
occupies a key position in the broader history of the Austrian
avant-garde while also deepening our understanding of modernism.

Her
work covers an impressive range of media and genres in the visual and
applied arts. Influenced by her studies at Vienna's Kunstgewerbeschule
(which later became the University of Applied Arts Vienna), the Itten
Private School, and the Bauhaus in Weimar, she worked as a painter,
stage designer, architect, designer in Vienna and Berlin, in exile, and
as a deportee.

This book explores the heterogeneity of Dicker's
work, reconstructs her artistic strategies and references to aesthetic
and political discourses from the 1920s to the 1940s, and documents for
the first time her works in the collection of the University of Applied
Arts Vienna.


  • Portrait of her work and collection catalog, dedicated to the artist, designer, and architect Friedl Dicker-Brandeis
  • Essays by Julie M. Johnson, Robin Rehm, Daniela Stöppel, and others

Harrow School
<p>The core of the collection of Greek vases at Harrow School is the gift of Sir John. Gardner Wilkinson, a leading Egyptologist of the mid nineteenth century whose wide range of interests is well demonstrated by his skill in collecting Greek vases, as well as his still influential books on Egypt. The collection is by no means an ordinary one, since it contains more than its share of Athenian masterpieces as well as a full range of wares from other parts of Greece and Italy. It includes the name vase of the Harrow Painter, an outstanding amphora by the Kleophrades Painter, and many hitherto unpublished pieces of more than ordinary merit.</p>

Reading Museum Service (Reading Borough Council)
<p>This volume completes the publication of the ancient Greek and Etruscan vases in the collection of the Reading Museum Service, most of which are displayed at the Ure Museum of Greek Archaeology, University of Reading (39 other vases were published in <em>Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum, Great Britain 12, University of Reading</em>, 1954).</p><p>Most of the vases are published here for the first time, with new attributions to identifiable vase painters or workshops. Painter/workshop attributions, fabric identifications, and iconographic discussions enlighten the reader with regard to new findings based on excavations and other fieldwork. The fabrics detailed in this volume range chronologically from Minoan to early Hellenistic, and include South Italian (Apulian, Campanian, Lucanian, and Sicilian), Etruscan, possibly East Greek, as well as mainland (Attic, Boeotian, and Corinthian) wares. It includes patterned, black-glazed, and unglazed wares from almost all of these fabrics, as well as those with figural decoration. The collection therefore represents all the major fabrics of ancient Greek and Etruscan ceramics.</p><p>The vases, many of which have recorded proveniences, share an interesting collections history, which is documented by Jill Greenaway in the Introduction.</p>
