Otto Prutscher (1880–1949) was an architect and designer in all material areas of applied art as well as an exhibition designer, teacher and member of all important reform art movements, from the Secession to the Wiener Werkstätte and the Werkbund.
The MAK – Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna owns an extensive graphic estate and important objects from Prutscher’s design oeuvre. Selected examples from Prutscher's work document his long-standing influential role as a designer and artistic consultant for decorative arts companies from Johann Loetz to Thonet.
The publication undertakes to revise Prutscher's work as a pacesetter of Viennese modernism - over twenty years after the last exhibition in Vienna and seventy years after his death.
