Charles Rennie Mackintosh: a refined, isolated artistic path of great impact for contemporary art and architecture.
This book covers all the phases of the artistic life of Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928), from the early period of work in the fields of graphics and the applied arts, to the surprising, visionary works he was already producing in the last years of the 1800s, to the paintings created in the last period of his life, which confirm a tormented sensibility that is clearly reflected in his architectural projects.
Due to the richness and homogeneity of its analytical approach – also thanks to an interesting collection of critical contributions – the volume offers a complete overview of a refined, isolated artistic path that had great impact on contemporary art and architecture.
