Design Genius

von Lilli Hollein, Claudia Cavallar, und Anne-Katrin Rossberg Dagobert Peche, einer der exzentrischsten Gestalter*innen der Wiener Moderne, ließ die Formensprache der berühmten Wiener Werkstätte gleichsam explodieren: Mit opulenten, von der Natur inspirierten Dekoren und einer revolutionären Ästhetik verlieh er Gebrauchsgegenständen eine bis dahin unbekannte Vielschichtigkeit. Peche arbeitete mit unterschiedlichsten Materialien - Silber, Glas, Keramik, Leder und Papier - und entwarf Schmuck, Möbel, Ausstellungs-Displays sowie sensationelle Stoffmuster. In wenig mehr als 10 Jahren schuf er ein OEuvre, das die Kunst- und Designwelt bis heute fasziniert und inspiriert. Die Publikation widmet sich dem ureigenen Kosmos des Künstlers in sieben Kapiteln - von "Arkadien " bis "Unheimlich" - und verfolgt seine Ausstrahlung vom Art-déco-Stil über die Postmoderne bis in die Gegenwart. Dagobert Peche, one of the most eccentric designers of Viennese Modernism, virtually blew apart the stylistic idiom of the famous Wiener Werkstätte: with opulent decorations inspired by nature and a revolutionary aesthetic, he lent practical objects a hitherto unknown complexity. Peche worked with a wide range of materials - silver, glass, ceramic, leather, and paper - designing jewelry, furniture, and exhibition displays, as well as sensational fabric patterns. In little over a decade he created an oeuvre that has fascinated and inspired the worlds of art and design ever since. Divided into seven chapters - from "Arcadia" to "Uncanny" - this publication is dedicated to the artist's unique cosmos and traces his impact from Art Deco to Postmodernism to the present day.
