Notes:Carl Krenek’s schooling in Vienna illustrates how decorative arts and economics were intertwined in the early twentieth century: Krenek attended the Drawing School for Manufacture, part of a Teaching Institute established by the textile industry. He then attended the School of Arts and Crafts, which trained numerous artists who went on to work at the Wiener Werkstätte. The productivity of the Arts and Crafts School graduates reached an almost industrial scale with the intention of bringing art to the masses.
