Secession poster (1899).<\/em><\/p>\n Since I’ve been delving over the past year into the fin de si\u00e8cle<\/em> culture of Germany and Austria, the name of Koloman Moser (1868\u20131918) has kept recurring. This is partly because of Moser’s associations with the Viennese Secession and the Wiener Werkst\u00e4tte, of course, but I’ve made a point of drawing attention to his work since it’s struck me as some of the most remarkable being produced anywhere in Europe during the period 1895\u20131910. Moser’s poster designs are a good example of his authority as an artist and graphic designer who quickly evolved from Mucha-derived Art Nouveau flourishes to a degree of stylisation that was incredibly advanced for the early 1900s. The graphics of Moser and fellow artist\/design Alfred Roller point the way to Art Deco twenty years later, and also to the psychedelic era whose poster artists eagerly borrowed motifs, figures and lettering designs from Moser, Roller, Mucha and others.<\/p>\n Frommes Kalender poster (1899).<\/em><\/p>\n Wikimedia Commons<\/a> has a generous sampling of Moser’s work that shows his incredible versatility in a variety of media.
