Wiener Werkstätte: Textiles and their design This book presents new research and archival findings on the textile and fashion designs of the Wiener Werkstätte movement (1903–1932). Textile specialists, art and design historians offer insights into the most important collections and archives in Austria, Switzerland, and the US. The publication explores works by lesser-known female textile artists; the influence of Eastern European folk art, Japanese patterns, and ornamentation textbooks on textile designs; applications in fashion, interior design, film, theater; and marketing strategies used to enter new markets in the US. It includes numerous illustrations of textile samples, many drawn from the Cotsen Textile Traces Study Collection (George Washington University Museum / Textile Museum), one of the largest collections of Wiener Werkstätte fabrics in the US. New research and archival findings on the Wiener Werkstätte textile design International project by the University of Neuchâtel, the George Washington University Museum / Textile Museum (exhibition from July 8 to November 5, 2023), and the University of Applied Arts Vienna Contributions by Susan Brown / Caitlin Condell, Rebecca Houze, Janis Staggs, and others
