{"product_id":"waiting-houses-friedensreich-hundertwasser","title":"Waiting Houses - Friedensreich Hundertwasser","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 1968 lithograph by Friedensreich Hundertwasser, featuring his signature organic architectural forms and bold, saturated colour palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaiting Houses (637A) is a characteristic example of the graphic work of Friedensreich Hundertwasser. Created in 1968, this piece displays the artist's rejection of the straight line, a concept he famously articulated in his manifestos. Instead, the composition relies on organic, undulating forms and a highly personal visual vocabulary that prioritises individual expression over architectural standardisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe image features a cluster of structures that appear to possess human-like qualities. The buildings are rendered in bold, saturated colours, with red, yellow, and violet dominating the palette. The windows are irregular, scattered across the facades like eyes, suggesting a sense of animation or sentience within the built environment. Above the structures, a series of concentric circles and radiating lines evoke a celestial presence, perhaps a sun or a cosmic force, which contrasts with the grounded, blocky nature of the houses below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHundertwasser often used his art to critique modern urban planning, which he viewed as sterile and oppressive. By imbuing his buildings with irregular shapes and unconventional colour schemes, he sought to restore a sense of humanity and connection to nature within the urban fabric. The use of metallic inks and complex layering techniques in his prints adds a tactile quality to the work, reflecting his interest in the physical properties of materials. This print captures his desire to create a more harmonious existence between people and their surroundings, where every building is treated as a unique, living entity rather than a uniform unit in a grid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/souvenir-of-chicago-max-beckmann\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eSouvenir of Chicago by Max Beckmann\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/those-who-have-nothing-to-lose-pavel-filonov\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThose Who Have Nothing to Lose by Pavel Filonov\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Friedensreich Hundertwasser","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59146988126543,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59146992779599,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59146992812367,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59146992845135,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59146992877903,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59146992910671,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59146992943439,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59146992976207,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59146993008975,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59146993041743,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59146993074511,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59146993107279,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Waiting-Houses_Poster_CompositorV1_1792124739420.jpg?v=1792290114","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/waiting-houses-friedensreich-hundertwasser","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
