Jugendstil in Berlin

The first comprehensive account of Art Nouveau in Berlin introduces seven artists who shaped Art Nouveau here: Bruno Möhring, Alfred Grenander, Otto Eckmann, Henry van de Velde, August Endell, Theodor Schmuz-Baudiß and Peter Behrens. The second part unfolds a panorama of Art Nouveau works in both public and private spaces, which presented themselves to contemporaries but have largely disappeared today: public and private buildings, transportation buildings, design and furnishings of offices, stores and private homes. Art stores and department stores presented works and goods in Art Nouveau in a great variety and quality. It can be seen that Berlin was a center of Art Nouveau to a far greater extent than previously assumed.
