Henry van de Velde and his legacy in Weimar In the turbulent years of the Early Modernist movement around 1895, the European art world enthusiastically

embraced a Flemish painter, who, like no other, seemed able by his words and deeds to open the door to the modern era: Henry van de Velde. He saw himself as an apostle of this future shift towards aes-theticism, and as a driving force in the departure from the jaded era of Historicism to a new style consistent with Nietzsche’s “new man”. Assur-edly turning his back on tradi-

tion, van de Velde disregarded the con-ventional boundaries between “arts” and “crafts”, and applied his philosophy to the design of almost every area of life: the structure of buildings, the lay-out of rooms, the styling of clothing and jewellery, but also the design of every-day objects from furniture to lighting and even letter openers. All his life, the multi-talented artist stayed true to his belief that accomplished design should reflect the intended function of an object. He always followed the principle that “beautiful” things which blend into their surroundings would have an inspiring and uplifting effect on people. At the end of 1901, Henry van de Vel-de was appointed advisor for arts, crafts and industry by the last Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach. He took up this post in Weimar on 1 April 1902. From 1902 to 1917, he was based in Weimar but his influence spread throughout Europe,

and it was during this time that he creat-ed some of his greatest works. Van de Velde was initially engaged in the field of interior design in Weimar as well as working on the impressive ensemble of art school buildings (1904|11) – which

form the centre of the present-day Bauhaus-Universität and have been part of a unesco World Cultur- al Heritage site since 1996. His clients in

Weimar included Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche, Harry Graf Kessler, Alfred von Nostitz, Else von Guaita-Lampe and the author Max von Münchhausen. One of his most highly acclaimed inte-rior designs was the conversion and expansion of the Nietzsche Archive in 1902|03, a commission referred to him by his friend and patron Harry Graf Kessler. Here, the Belgian was first able to realise his vision of a gesamtkunstwerk or synthesis of the arts, a concept which has lost none of its impact to the pre-sent day. His second home “Hohe Pap-peln” (High Poplars) was finally built in 1907|08; the furnishings from the apart-ment that once belonged to Max von Münchhausen have been on display here since 2003. Van de Velde went on to design two spacious villas in Wei- mar for Count Dürckheim (1912|13, Cra-nachstrasse 47) and Baron Henneberg (1913|14, Gutenbergstrasse 1a), as well as the facade of the Menzel apartment building (1906, Trierer Strasse 71), and the monument for the Koetschau fami-ly at the historical cemetery (1909).

Model for a universal museum in Erfurt

Whilst living in Weimar, van de Velde was actively engaged in Europe, but also closer to home in Thuringia. In Jena, for example, his tempietto dedicated to physicist and social reformer Ernst Abbe was both an “architectural art-work” and a modern memorial. Villa Esche in Chemnitz (1902|11) and Villa Schulenburg in Gera (1913|14) are fur-ther examples of the few all-embracing art forms by the artist that still remain intact today. The pottery town of Bürgel became a centre for art nouveau ceram-ics thanks to van de Velde’s longstand-ing commitment to the town. By intro-ducing new designs and decorations, the Flemish artist gave the local potter-ies an impetus that brought long-term success. Some of his designs and a varie-ty of reproductions are on show in the town’s ceramics museum. Henry van

de Velde was commissioned by the city of Erfurt to design a new building for a Universal Museum, but the outbreak of the First World War meant his plans were never realised.

In the footsteps of the Belgian artist Henry van de Velde in Chemnitztwo nights

The Chemnitz stocking manufacturer Herbert Eugen Esche – a connoisseur and admirer of contemporary art – was so excited by van de Velde’s style that he placed his first architectural order in Germany with him in 1902. The Chem-nitz entrepreneur entrusted the com-plete building work for his villa to van de Velde: from the garden fence to the door handle – everything was to bear the hallmark of the Belgian architect. The artist received more orders in Chemnitz as a result of the friendship between Esche and van de Velde, e. g. the Villa Körner and the Villa Quisisana.

Art School and School of Arts and Crafts The van de Velde ensemble

The art school building, built to Henry van de Velde’s designs in 1904 and 1911, is now the main building of the Bau-haus-Universität in Weimar. As well as being an impressive and richly detailed

work of architecture, the building has many features that bear wit-ness to its history. The foyer, for example, con-tains three sculptures: a statue of Henry van de Velde on the left, the bust of Walter Gro-pius on the right and, taking pride of place underneath the spiral art nouveau staircase, Auguste Rodin’s Eve. Opposite the art school building is the former School of Arts and Crafts, designed by van de Velde and built in 1905 and 1906. As the Van de Velde Work-shop it is today home to the Faculty of De- sign. Conceived as an

angled arrangement with a standard-ised architectural form, the building was once home to the art college’s sculpture studio and the Grand Ducal School of Arts and Crafts. The Figurines relief and a mural by Oskar Schlemmer adorn the stairwell of the building, and works by Bauhaus artists can be seen in the foyer.

Haus Hohe Pappeln Henry van de Velde’s private residence

In summer 1906, Henry van de Velde bought a plot of land bordered with tall poplars (Hohe Pappeln) on Belvederer Allee and drew up plans for his second home there. Haus Hohe Pappeln was, as he intended, a gesamtkunstwerk that harmoniously brought together art, architecture and interior design. The house, set amid a lovingly tended gar-den, was where van de Velde’s five chil-dren grew up, as the artist himself said, “without the conventional pressures”. Up until the family’s emigration in the First World War, the house was fre-quented by a number of van de Velde’s

fellow artists, among them Hugo von Hof-mannsthal, Richard Dehmel, Pierre Bon-nard and Edvard Munch. The property, which is of great cul-tural and historical importance, has been extensively restored by the Foundation of Weimar Classics and displays furni-ture that van de Velde designed for the von Münchhausen fami- ly in 1904. Arts and crafts exhibits and

biographical information complement the presentation. The tour includes the garden and the beautiful reception rooms on the bel étage, including the par-lour, dining room, study and lounge.

Nietzsche Archive Henry van de Velde as an interior designer

The Nietzsche Archive was founded in Naumburg in early 1894 by Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche, the sister of philo-sopher Friedrich Nietzsche, and was relocated to Weimar in September 1896. In 1897, Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche moved into Villa Silberblick in Weimar with her ailing brother, who died there in 1900. Two years after his death, she commissioned Henry van de Velde to redesign and refurnish the ground floor rooms of the villa. These were officially opened on 15 October 1903. The interior design and furnishings of the Nietzsche Archive are among van de Velde’s most accomplished creations. His artistic

influence can be seen in the new entrance, the vestibule, a small study and dining room, and the central room which was used as a library and for meetings. The ensem-ble created by van de Velde as a “complete work of art” is almost completely intact. The library contains a marble herm of Nietzsche by Max Klinger and portraits of the philosopher by Hans Olde. A studio exhibition document-ing the colourful his-

tory of the building can be found in the former dining room.

Villa Dürckheim Private residence of the Dürckheim family

Friedrich Graf von Dürckheim-Mont-martin (1858–1939), a relation of Harry Graf Kessler’s friend Eberhard von Bodenhausen, commissioned Henry

van de Velde to design a lavish villa in 1912. It was built on the last spacious plot on Cranach-strasse (no. 47) and was com-pleted in spring 1913. The driving force behind the project was his wealthy wife, Charlotte von Dürckheim-

Montmartin (1896 –1959), who amassed more than 170,000 deutschmarks dur-ing the war to keep van de Velde in Wei-mar. Inundated with commissions at the time, the Belgian designer took an architectural plan he had created for another client, Victor von Golubeff in Fontainebleau, that had never been real-ised, and adapted it to the needs of a larger household. In both cases, the villa opened out onto the garden with two wide avant-corps and had a long, contin-uous facade at the front. Henry van de Velde also designed every detail of the reception rooms on the bel étage, but lit-tle has survived to the present day.

Ernst Abbe monument A work of European standing

This memorial pavilion designed by Henry van de Velde was built in 1911 to honour Ernst Abbe, the physicist, industrialist, social reformer and

co-founder of the Zeiss company. It contains bronze reliefs by Constantin Émile Meunier and Max Klinger’s mar-ble herm featuring a bust of Abbe. The octagonal temple-like edifice is excep-tionally striking and dominates the square named after Abbe’s associate Carl Zeiss. Built from limestone, it has four portals with bronze hinged doors, a marquetry floor and a skylight dome made of reinforced concrete. The costs of construction and of the pavilion’s artworks were largely covered by dona-tions from the people of Jena.

Haus Schulenburg A fascinating mix of art and architecture

Haus Schulenburg is a unique work of art that allows visitors to fully appreci-ate Henry van de Velde’s revolutionary concepts of design. Van de Velde creat-ed the ensemble in 1913|14 for the local textile factory owner, orchid grower and art collector Paul Schulenburg. In 2012, its owners, Rita and Volker Kielstein, who salvaged and restored the building, received the Thuringian award for the protection and preservation of histori-cal monuments. The park, with its his-torical trees and shrubs, re-laid terraces and horticultural displays, was an offi-cial project for the Federal Horticultural Show in 2007. An internationally regard-ed collection containing book designs,

furniture and designs by Henry van de Velde, as well as art works by his contemporar-ies, can be seen in the private museum. The house is not only an exhibi-tion centre but also a popular events venue. The cabaret theatre offers a programme of comedy, music

and plays, and the heritage-listed park hosts sculpture exhibitions and open-air events.

Villa Esche A design for life

Van de Velde’s first architectural com-mission in Germany was to design and build Villa Esche in Chemnitz. Its straight lines and functional design illustrate his rational interpretation of art nouveau. Van de Velde’s design for hosiery manufacturer Herbert Esche and his family encompassed every aspect of the family’s living environ-ment: the exterior and room layout, the walls, doors, windows, lights and

carpets, the furni-ture, porcelain, silver and pri- vate household objects. The Bel-gian also inte-grated the gen-erously sized garden into the overall concept for the house, cre-ating a space that was both artistic and functional. The Henry van de Velde Muse-um at Villa Esche contains one of the most wide-ranging collec-tions of works by this groundbreak-ing designer as

well as two rooms by van de Velde with almost all their original furnishings.

Villa Koerner A “complete work of art” in every detail

Villa Koerner on Beyerstrasse has been restored to its former glory. Once the private residence of ink factory owner Theodor Körner, it was designed by Henry van de Velde and built in Chem-

nitz around ten years after Villa Esche (1913|14). By prior arrangement with the owners, visitors can enjoy viewings of Villa Koerner and its adjacent parkland, discovering the art nouveau character and modern archi-

tecture of one of the most culturally sig-nificant buildings in Chemnitz. Van de Velde had gained ten years’ experience in architectural design between Villa Esche and Villa Koerner. His distinctive style, which had previously manifested itself in a more-or-less decorative form, had now been fully realised in the archi-tectural realm.
