Wagner, Otto Koloman

  • P290
  • Person
  • 1841-1918

Otto Wagner studied architecture in Berlin and Vienna from 1857 until 1863. From 1864 Otto Wagner had his own practice in Vienna. Otto Wagner's early commissions were for private houses and office buildings in the Historicizing style, exemplifed by the 1867 Villa Epstein in Baden. In 1873 Otto Wagner designed the synagogue in Budapest. "Haus Schottenring 23" (1878) and Villa Wagner (1888) in Vienna-Hütteldorf are also in the historicizing "Ringstrasse style". From 1894 until 1912 Otto Wagner was a professor for architecture at the Viennese "Akademie der bildenden Künste". In the 1890s, however, Otto Wagner abandoned Historicism to follow the new trend in art, becoming an important pioneer of Viennese Modernism. As a designer, Otto Wagner was also responsible from 1890 for numerous furnishings, lighting, textiles, and utilitarian glass and metal objects. In 1898 the houses known as "Viennese row houses" were built after plans by Otto Wagner, Jugendstil architecture by now, with façades that emphasized surfaces and featuring new materials. In 1899 Otto Wagner joined the Viennese Secession.Otto Wagner's most important works of architecture and urban planning include laying out the Viennese urban railway (1892-1901) with viaducts, bridges, and more than thirty stops as well as the am Steinhof church (1902-07). The building he designed as the Austrian Postsparkasse (1904-06) is regarded as Otto Wagner's masterpiece, both aesthetically and technically. Otto Wagner conceived this building as a total work of art, using not only the newest materials such as reinforced concrete and aluminium; he also designed the entire interior, which reveals early functionalist tendencies, and used new methods of furniture-making.

She also listed her address as 319 Sauchiehall Street from 1913 to 1916, an address listed by artist Mary Eunson as her commercial address in the Post Office directory of 1911-12.

  • Person
  • 1927-1972

John Harold Westgarth Voelcker was a British architect and designer. He was the first Professor of Architecture at the University of Glasgow and also appointed to supervise the Department of Architecture at GSA.

Born in Preston, Lancashire. He studied at the Architectural Association and then worked in Milan, later returning to London, where he became a member of the Royal Institute of British Architects.

In the early 1950s Voelcker was a member of Team 10, dominated by Peter and Alison Smithson, but later split with the group. In 1954 he moved to Kent where he developed a country practice creating designs for farm improvements, school and office buildings. He also worked on houses and housing schemes for local authorities and businesses. At the same time he taught in various capacities concerning planning and public design, including work at the AA School and Cambridge University. He undertook research with Ove Arup and Partners and was a member of the MARS Group of Urban Planners and a founder member of Team X working on urban planning and design.

In 1956 Voelcker collaborated with Richard Hamilton and John McHale on the seminal This is Tomorrow exhibition, for which Voelcker designed the structure of their part of the exhibition.

In 1958 a dispute with local planning authorities over a building designed for the jazz musician Humphrey Lyttelton led to Voelcker and Lyttelton successfully challenging the authorities. The building was a dramatic U-shaped structure and included a "splendidly witty" pop art mural by McHale. As a result of their defence of creative architecture Voelcker and Lyttelton were named the Architect's Journal's men of the year.

In 1965 he became director of Senior Studies at the AA School. Three years later in 1969 Voelcker became Professor of Architecture at Glasgow. He held the position until his early death.

The event took the form of an exhibition with various shows and activities such as a 'Belgian Market', a 'Chamber of Horrors' and a 'Lightning Artist', in order to raise funds for the Red Cross and The Belgian Relief Fund.

During the interwar period, he formed the course of decorative arts at the Universite du Travail in Charleroi Belgium, delivering drawing classes at the institution where he taught for forty years. Houten was clearly a very influential teacher at the school with some of his pupils such as Léon Adam , Gustave Camus , Alphonse Darville , Georges Debroux , Marcel Delmotte , Joseph Gillain , Marthe Guillain , Ben Genaux and Félix van Immerzeel all establishing themselves as well respected artists. He is also considered a pivotal figure and initiator of the art of the Charleroi region of Belgium.

In 1925, Houten participated in the 'Exposition des Art Decoratifs' in Paris. The exposition, which was created by the French Government in order to highlight the new international style as well as promoting a brighter and more optimistic future after The First World War.

Houten is best known for his impressionist landscape paintings of Belgium, Scotland, France and Luxemborg as well as his still lives and portraits. The artist died in 1944 in Belgium at the age of 70.
