Vienna (Austria), Sep 12 (EFE) .- (Camera: Antonio Sánchez) The Leopold Museum in Vienna has expanded its 'Vienna in 1900' with additions to 'The Schedlmayer Collection: A Discovery!', a private collection with works of architect Otto Prutscher.In 1989, pharmaceutical businessman Fritz Schedlmayer and his wife Hermi acquired the Villa Rothberger, built in 1902 in Baden, about 30 kilometres south of Vienna, and began a restoration during which they discovered the work of Otto Prutscher, a contemporary modernist artist.Prutscher, a representative of Viennese modernism, still relatively unknown today, had remodelled the house in 1912, transforming an unoriginal building applying principles of Viennese modernism.From there, the Schedlmayer family began to investigate his work and life and to acquire pieces designed by him: cabinets, display cabinets, glasses, vases, chairs, clocks and all kinds of pieces with the beauty and functionality of the Jugendstil (Viennese modernism).With this exhibition, the Leopold Museum, founded 20 years ago, expands the project "Vienna in 1900", a permanent exhibition launched in 2019 that explains the creative explosion, the political and intellectual upheaval that was lived at the time in the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.FOOTAGE OF THE LEOPOLD MUSEUM AND THE PRIVATE COLLECTION DEDICATED TO OTTO PRUTSCHER.
