Adolf Loos (1870–1933), an opponent of ornamentation on buildings, designed buildings in Vienna that contrasted with the popular Art Nouveau and Secession styles. In this anthology of eight essays, Long takes on the meanings of Loos’ writings and design work, the cultural world in which he was embedded, and how he was regarded by the critics and public. Long exposes and explodes old myths about Loos, fostering in the process a new, brilliant and compelling view of one of modern architecture’s key protagonists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChristopher Long \u003c\/strong\u003eis the author of\u003cem\u003e Adolf Loos on Trial \u003c\/em\u003eand\u003cem\u003e Essays on Adolf Loos. \u003c\/em\u003eHe is a professor in the Architectural History program at the University of Texas School of Architecture. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoftcover \u003cbr\u003e144 pages\u003cbr\u003eKANT, 2024 \u003cbr\u003e6.5 x 9 inches \u003cbr\u003eISBN 9788074373954\u003cbr\u003eArchitecture and Design\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vendor-unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55210080927912,"sku":"9788074373954","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0175\/8594\/files\/Long_Christopher_Adolf-Loos_Meaning-Context-Reception-Essays.jpg?v=1769191983","url":"https:\/\/neue-galerie-design-shop.myshopify.com\/products\/adolf-loos-meaning-context-reception-essays","provider":"Neue Galerie Design Shop \u0026 Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
