Friedl Dicker and Franz Singer attended Johannes Itten's private art school in Vienna before leaving it in 1919 with 14 young artists to follow their teacher to the newly founded State Bauhaus in Weimar. Many came from Jewish families, were persecuted or murdered during the Nazi era, and often their works were also destroyed. Fortunately, sketches, plans, models and photographs have survived. This book focuses on the modernist designs of Franz Singer and Friedl Dicker. The two met the taste of an open-minded clientele from the predominantly Jewish milieus of Vienna, Prague, Brno, Budapest. They created some remarkable documents of the "New Building" and above all interiors characterised by clear, stereometric forms, carefully selected materials and strong, precisely coordinated colours. The often foldable and stackable furniture was an alternative to the established upper middle-class living culture of a Josef Hoffmann or Josef Frank. Friedl Dicker - one of the most versatile artists of her time - fled to Prague in 1933, while Singer gained a foothold in London and was able to continue his work. Dicker, who also left behind a significant painterly oeuvre, was murdered in Auschwitz in 1944.
