Search - Victor Horta : L'Inventeur (French)

Victor Horta L'Inventeur - French
Author: Christian Mesnil

Patrimoine mondial " à quatre de ses principales œuvres, la personnalité de celui qui a été le créateur du Style Art nouveau reste encore largement méconnue. Le noyau central de la quête du livre de Christian Mesnil est la recherche de l'homme qui se cache derrière l'&oeli... more »g;uvre, des rapports dynamiques qui se tissent, souvent de façon surprenante, entre l'artiste et son architecture, entre l'homme et l'esprit du temps. Saisissant l'itinéraire de la vie de l'architecte dans son mouvement créatif, l'auteur n'a pas hésité à intégrer dans le récit des témoignages inédits, des extraits de lettres ou de journaux, sans compter une abondante illustration qui permet de visualiser les lieux et les hommes.

On the Dawn Lyrics

Christian Mesnil, filmmaker and screenwriter by training, became interested in Art Nouveau in 1984 with his film The Art Nouveau in Brussels today, followed by a homonymous book published in 1992. Therefore, it will focus particularly on the work and life of Victor Horta who is the inventor of this style.

After an essay published in 1990, he directed a feature film (a moment with Horta) to lead this work, the first detailed biography devoted to the master.

Books of interviews, biographies, essays, and poetry ... Dawn is the moment when the word gets up - and with it, all the light. Outside it's cold. It opens the window you throw salt in angels, some questions to writers. They respond with that voice is no longer that of everyday life, not that of writing. With that weak voice - common in the ashes, trembling under the page.

If, in 2000, international opinion has discovered the existence of the architectural work of Victor Horta at the time of grant by UNESCO label "World Heritage" in four of its principal’s works, the personality of one who was the creator of the Art Nouveau style rests still largely unknown.

The central core of the quest book by Christian Mesnil is sought of man behind the work, the dynamic relationships that develop, often surprisingly, between the artist and architecture, between man and the zeitgeist.

Seizing the itinerary of the life of the architect as a creative movement, the author has not hesitated to incorporate into the story of unpublished accounts, excerpts from letters and journals, plus a wealth of illustrations which allows visualizer places and homes.
