Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky. Architecture. Politics. Gender. New Perspectives on Her Life and Work

The book was published in the book series of the University of Applied Arts Vienna Edition Angewandte.

The latest research from the fields of art and contemporary history, pedagogy and gender studies present a more differentiated picture of the architect, whose estate is housed at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Her rich architectural oeuvre, her transnational experiences and professional networks, her political career as a communist and, last but not least, her current reception are illuminated. The volume presents Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky, the icon of architectural history, beyond all myths.

The editors Marcel Bois and Bernadette Reinhold in conversation with Stephanie Buhmann (ACF).
