Idyll and Ideology: Hermann Mattern and the Landscape to Live In by Lars Hopstoc

Description: Idyll and Ideology by Lars Hopstock Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This first English-language biography of Hermann Mattern (1902–1971), one of Germanys principal twentieth-century landscape architects, critically assesses the idiosyncrasies of his organic-functionalist position while offering a new reading of German garden culture of his time. Matterns work embodies several themes of the German landscape discourse as well as the central ambivalence of his generation: a life spanning the artistic avant-garde of the 1920s and an apparently apolitical career under the Nazi regime and in the postwar period. Based on comprehensive archival research, Hopstocks richly illustrated study uncovers the professional networks, debates, and rivalries that shaped the profession of landscape architecture in Germany during its formative decades.
