Discover the contexts and provocations of a vivid turn-of-the-century style. This richly illustrated overview explores how a symphony of flowing lines and organic forms advocated not only a new linear freedom and liberation from artistic tradition, but also a return to handcraftsmanship, the synthesis of artistic media and practices into a Gesamtkunstwerk, or total work of art, and a recoil from industrialization.
