A history of an art movement with an analysis and techniques. "This sweeping survey of Art Fabric works, objects, and activity in the important decade of the 1970's is a roaring statement of artistic truth. The relative youth of this movement is reflected in the vigor of the works presented. Yet their technical maturity and aesthetic soundness and honesty reflect a tradition of great antiquity. Far more than just a valuable documentation of the art fabric movement, this book is a statement of love for this medium by authors who are major forces in the art fabric world and sets a standard for art in any medium" - from front flap.

"Why Don't You . . . tie black tulle bows on your wrists?have a yellow satin bed entirely quilted in butterflies?remember how delicious champagne cocktails are after tennis or golf? Indifferent champagne can be used for these." For more than half a century, Diana Vreeland, doyenne of American fashion, beguiled, awed, astonished, and was adored by almost anyone who created or wore clothes. Irresistible and flamboyant, socialite Mrs. T. Reed Vreeland began her now legendary twenty-five-year tenure at "Harper's Bazaar writing a column of audacious advice: extravagant ideas that helped redefine American women and twentieth-century fashion. Her commentary created a fashion frenzy when it began appearing in "Harper's Bazaar in 1936. Her ideas were simultaneously stylish and outrageous, and have as much appeal today as they did decades ago. Here for the first time, John Esten has compiled one hundred of Mrs. Vreeland's kaleidoscopic "Why Don't You . . . ?" suggestions, and pairedthem with the breathtaking works of such renowned photographers and artists as Munkacsi, Dahl-Wolfe, Hoyningen-Heune, and Berard, which further capture the dazzling legacy of whimsy, elegance, and style of Mrs. Vreeland's "Bazaar years.

David Sylvester
Skira

Dal 1962 al 1986, il critico d'arte David Sylvester ha raccolto nove interviste a un controverso protagonista dell'arte europea del Novecento: il pittore inglese Francis Bacon. Il volume si pone come strumento di riflessione per gli artisti e i critici d'arte, ma anche per chiunque voglia capire una vicenda artistica ed esistenziale protesa alla verità della condizione umana. L'approccio di Sylvester apre le porte dell'universo di Bacon, scandagliando l'opera di un pittore che ha rivelato all'uomo del XX secolo il suo volto inquietante, liberandolo da ogni maschera o da facili illusioni.
