Download or read book Stephen Sills written by Stephen Sills and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to focus on the solo residential work of the visionary interior decorator Stephen Sills. Simultaneously classical and modern, Stephen Sills’s design work is a dialogue between past and present. Filled with luxurious fabrics, furnishings from across centuries, and unusual finishes, his work is polished, seemingly effortless, and quietly rich, with a muted color palette that serves as a brilliant foil for modern art. In this striking, meditative volume, the follow-up to his best-selling book Dwellings, Sills presents sixteen breathtaking homes, gorgeously photographed by the legendary François Halard, in locations as varied as a penthouse on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue, a modern Aspen retreat, an estate on the North Shore of Long Island, and his own country house in Bedford, New York (dubbed the "chicest house in America" by Karl Lagerfeld). Common to them all is a sense of atmosphere, point of view, and soul—the sense of a master craftsman at work.
Book Synopsis The Unforgettables by : Charles C. Eldredge
Download or read book The Unforgettables written by Charles C. Eldredge and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eminent art historian Charles C. Eldredge brings together top scholars to celebrate forgotten artists and create a more inclusive history of American art. Why do some artists become canonical, while others, equally respected in their time, fall into obscurity? This question is central to The Unforgettables, a vibrant collection of essays by leading experts on American art. Each contributor presents a brief for an artist deserving of new or renewed attention, including artists from the colonial era to recent years working in a wide variety of mediums. Histories of American art have traditionally highlighted the work of a familiar roster of artists, largely white and male. The achievements of their peers, notably women and artists of color, have gone uncelebrated. The essays in this volume provide a new and richer understanding of American art, expanding the canon to include many worthy talents. A number of these artists were acclaimed in their day; others, having missed that acclaim, may achieve it now. With contributions from major scholars and museum professionals, The Unforgettables rescues and revises reputations as it enhances and enriches the history of American art.

Download or read book Tulsa Art Deco written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tulsa, Oklahoma, Oil Capital of the world, came into its mineral inheritance in its youth, just as Art Deco came onto the scene, and the style and the city evolved together for nearly half a century. This book traces the current of Art Deco that flows through the city's built history. Empowered by its exuberant new oil wealth, Tulsa erected lyrical skyscrapers in the Zigzag style and the Jazz-age twenties roared. Gillette-Tyrell and Philcade rose with profits from black gold while Christ the king and Boston Avenue Methodist Church invited souls to expand with the material world raising their bricks and mortar toward heaven. During the Depression, the city built closer to earth in the more austere WPA style, concentrating on the needs of the people with Will Rogers and Daniel Webster high schools and the Fairgrounds Pavilion. As "jazz smoothed into swing" in the speed-intoxicated 30s and 40s, the city built sleek, flowing Streamline Deco places of business-gasoline service stations, the Big Ten Ballroom, Brook Theater, corner diners-and a number of superlative private residences. In the 50s, Deco went Moderne.
