TILED INTERIORS ON PAPER. TRADE CATALOGUES AS A KEY SOURCE TO UNDERSTAND THE USE OF TILES IN EUROPEAN INTERIORS

April 21st, 2021 | 18h00 [UTC] | via Zoom [session to be held in English]

Abstract

The enormous popularity of the decorated industrial wall and floor tile in the 19th and 20th centuries is well known. However, any serious general research on the use of tiles in interiors is very difficult, as access to existing private interiors is in many ways restricted. More than the complicated study of a selection of still existing tile schemes in interiors, the study of trade catalogues of tile factories leads to a better understanding of the general use of the tile in the interior. 

Tile catalogues give us a deeper insight in the great variety in use of that material, inform us about the factories that were producing these luxury building products, help us to date the designs more precisely in cases where an exact building year or date of refurbishing is not known, and more general they offer invaluable information on the technical and aesthetic evolution of tiles. Trade catalogues are thus of great importance for a deeper knowledge about the changes in taste in interior architecture. Tile catalogues are also a valuable source for understanding international differences or international influences in matters of style and the huge and worldwide export success of tiles form leading countries as England, Germany, Belgium or France as will be richly illustrated in this presentation.

Invited speaker:
Mario Baeck [Postdoctoral researcher, Doctor in Art Sciences, Ghent University Belgium]

Mario Baeck (b. 1958), postdoctoral researcher in Art History, took his doctoral degree in Art Sciences at Ghent University, Belgium, in 2015 with a thesis on the development of the Belgian industrial wall and floor tile 1840-1940 in a European context. Published and lectured widely in different languages on various aspects of tile history (see for some papers). Wrote together with Bart Verbrugge a groundbreaking study on Belgian Art Nouveau and Art Deco wall tiles (1880-1940). Was curator for national and international exhibitions in which the Belgian industrial floor and wall tile is put in the spotlight. As a member of several scientific societies he regularly advises public heritage institutions in Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia on tile restoration projects. Was co-promoter of several master’s theses in the field of conservation / restoration of ceramics and on Monuments and Landscapes (Royal Academy of Fine Arts & Henry van de Velde Institute, University of Antwerp).
