Hundertwasser for Future


  • Hatje Cantz (Thames)
The paintings and architecture by Friedensreich Hundertwasser are nothing less than revolutionary. With their strong, colorful formal vocabulary, Hundertwasser's works allow nature its space. Even beyond his artwork, though, the Austrian environmentalist fought for new ideas and ideals. In many conversations, lectures, letters, and manifestos, he formulated his notions-from recycling, the greening of roofs and façades, and the democratization of living space. What seemed like a utopia to his contemporaries

Description

The paintings and architecture by Friedensreich Hundertwasser are nothing less than revolutionary. With their strong, colorful formal vocabulary, Hundertwasser's works allow nature its space. Even beyond his artwork, though, the Austrian environmentalist fought for new ideas and ideals. In many conversations, lectures, letters, and manifestos, he formulated his notions-from recycling, the greening of roofs and façades, and the democratization of living space. What seemed like a utopia to his contemporaries is now urgently virulent and surprisingly current. Commemorating the twentieth anniversary of Hundertwasser's death, Hundertwasser Hundertwasser for Futur compiles his statements, excerpts from his manifestos, his paintings, examples of his utopian architecture, and his ideas for the future.


FRIEDENSREICH HUNDERTWASSER (1928–2000) is known around the world for his visionary paintings and architecture. His works and essays make up a lively body of contemporary criticism, promoting clear-sighted concepts for changing social and economic circumstances.
