About This Item
1925. Vienna, Schroll, 1925. 30,5 : 25,5 cm. 23 pages with 10 illustrations, 80 mostly coloured plates Loos as issued in half-cloth porfolio. Franz Ciek (1865-1946) is considered an outstanding reformer of art education. His Viennese youth art classes, which he founded in 1897 in close proximity to the Viennese Secessionists, became the center of a reform movement with lasting international impact. The appreciation and encouragement of children's creativity, which was able to develop in a supportive, enthusiastic environment, shook the authoritarian regulatory concepts of public education. Ciek's practical artistic work with children and his very successful exhibitions in Great Britain and the USA were noticed and carried forward to the present day, by Maria Montessori and the English Child Art movement as well as, to this day, by reform movements in Canada and the USA. Cizek, (1865 - 1946), entered the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna in 1885, where he worked in the general painting school under Franz Rumpler until 1889, and later in the special school for history painting under Josef Matthias von Trenkwald until 1895. After another year of study in Munich, he was a drawing teacher at a Vienna state secondary school from 1897 to 1903, also ran a private drawing and painting school, came to the art embroidery school in Vienna in 1903 and in 1906 became a professor at the applied arts school of the Austrian Museum of Art and Industry, where As head of the general department, he taught general formal theory, ornamental drawing and composing. Since 1908, inspector for drawing lessons at Austria's state commercial schools, C., who is considered the founder of the youth art movement and saw the goal of drawing lessons to be to develop an understanding of art creation through one's own activity, founded a youth art class (1908) and the association "Art and school" (1914). - Complete with all 80 plates. - Flaps partly reinforced. A good copy of this rare and important work by Cizek.
