Beschreibung

<p>A pioneer of architectural history</p> <p>Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky (1897-2000) entered the modernist canon with her "Frankfurt Kitchen." She is also considered a pioneer of social architecture, a women's rights activist, and, last but not least, a heroine of the resistance to the Nazi dictatorship.</p> <p>In this book, available in English for the first time, recent research in the fields of art history, contemporary history, pedagogy, and gender studies provides a nuanced picture of Schütte-Lihotzky, whose estate is archived at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. The volume explores her rich architectural oeuvre, her transnational experiences and professional networks, her political development as a Communist, and her current reception. It breaks through the mythology to present a rounded picture of Schütte-Lihotzky, an icon of architectural history.</p> • First comprehensive publication on Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky in English <br> • Cross-disciplinary research contributions by renowned authors; foreword by Juliet Kinchin <br> • Illuminates Schütte-Lihotzky's fascinating work alongside the Frankfurt Kitchen
