Published on the occasion of the exhibition Madness and Modernity : Mental Illness and the Visual Arts in Vienna 1900, Wellcome Collection, London, 1 April - 28 June 2009.
'Madness and Modernity' sets out to chart the theme of madness across a variety of territories in Vienna in 1900, including art and design, society and architecture, and literature and psychiatry. This journey into what madness meant in the Austro-Hungarian capital at the turn of the 20th century covers new ground and is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of modern European culture. The book plots the nexus between the study of mental illness and the Modernist ideals of groups such as the Secessionists, who included Gustav Klimt, Koloman Moser, Josef Hoffmann and Otto Wagner. Designs by Wagner for the Steinhof Psychiatric Hospital are juxtaposed with portraits by Oskar Kokoschka of patients interned there; self-portraits by Egon Schiele are shown alongside photographs of neurological disorder; and art works by patients are explored in the context of the spaces they inhabited and the treatments they received. Taken in parts or as a whole, this book is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand how psychiatry influenced early Modernism in the visual arts and how Modernism has influenced our attitudes to the mentally ill ever since. Produced to accompany the ‘Madness and Modernity’ exhibition. -Text provided by Wellcome Collection
