Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. Gr.4° (325x230mm) 10 Photo-gravures by Heinrich (Jindrich) Koch (1896-1934) Czech photographer, graduated from secondary school in Uherské Hradic and in 1915 to 1918 studied law and art history at the University of Vienna. He then continued his education at the Academy of Art in Vienna, and studied sculpture under Jan tursa at the Academy of Fine Art in Prague. In 1922, he apparently became the first Czech student at Bauhaus in Weimar, where he concentrated on architecture, advertisements, and interior design. He also began to apply himself to photography, which he studied under Hans Finsler at the School of Applied Art Giebichenstein near Halle. In 1929 he married Benita Koch, the head of the weaving department, and a former Bauhaus student whom he had met in Dessau several years before. In 1932, after Finsler left for Zurich, Koch became his successor, and fifteen months later he headed the department of photography at Giebichenstein. With the rise of the Nazis to power he was expelled and had to leave for Prague, together where in 1934 he was accepted as photographer at the National Museum. Shortly after he was killed in a traffic accident. The Museum of Decorative Arts organized an exhibition on his work in 1934, and the State Graphic Arts School issued a modest publication with reproductions of his photographs following the style of New Objectivity. First edition, compiled and edited by Ladislav Sutnar. First edition, text in Czech. Original boards. In Fine condition.…

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Oblong octavo 15x21 cm., four numbers per year. Vytvarna Vychova (Art Education, Anthology of Artwork, Design and Visual Training) was a series of books issued from 1935 to 1944 in four numbers per year. Each number holds 56 pages of instructions, lessons, and discussion of art and design principles, with copious illustrations throughout, many in color. Edited by Josef Vydra (1884-1959) artist, ethnologist, art theorist. Vydra was an art educator of first magnitude working in Bratislava and Brno. He teamed with legendary Ladislav Sutnar (1897-1976) who had longtime interests in art education, toys and crafts as learning tools, and Karel Herain (1890-1953), art historian and Curator of the Decorative Arts Museum (Umeleckoprumyslové Muzeum) in Prague to assemble some of the best minds and talents of Czechoslovakia and beyond to produce a series of ideas and practicalities in visual design. Contributors included Zdenek Rossmann, Antonín Heythun, Ernst Kállai, L'udovit Fulla, Mikulas Galanda, Ladislav Zak, Fernand Léger, Jan Tschichold, Zdenek Pesánek, V.V. Stech, Karel Capek, Sutnar and Vydra among many others--- artists, teachers and designers, historians and theorists--- whose names cited above reflect the highest quality of imparting artistic skills to students, young and old. All manner of a fine and industrial arts curriculum will be found in these pages, from painting, drawing, sculpture, drafting, furniture design and making, toys (a Sutnar specialty), photography and film, graphic art and design, crafts, etc., -- in short, what engages the eyes, hands, and tools for creation and production. The quality of care and attention to all areas of visual art that are found here is a testimony to the variegated, thriving culture in interwar Czechoslovakia that engaged so much of the population. The present collection includes 29 of the 40 numbers published: 1935 Year I 1-4 (complete) 1936 Year II 1-4 (complete) 1937 Year III 1-2,4; 1938 Year IV 2-4; 1939 Year V 1-2, 4; 1940 Year VI 1, 3; 1941 Year VII 1,3; 1942 Year VIII 1-2; 1943 Year IX 1-4 (complete) 1944 Year X 1-4.(complete) Further details furnished on request. This is a sheer delight of invention and visual learning. Very uncommon, with OCLC finding only one partial holding in North America (Virginia Museum of Fine Art). Copies very good to fine, some near new. …
