Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italian architect and designer Ettore Sottsass is celebrated internationally for his contribution to architecture, industrial and furniture design, ceramics, jewelry, crafts, graphic design, and photography. He founded the Memphis group, and through its startling, eclectic and irreverent aesthetic he dominated furniture and interior style for over a decade. Almost every area of modern design displays his influence. Featuring over 100 full-page illustrations - photographs, architectural drawings, sketches, collages - this monograph explores Sottsass's work in all his many fields of activity, including his world-famous office products for Olivetti, and his colorful Memphis furniture. Barbara Radice, a long-time companion of Sottsass, gives a sensitive account of his life and work, drawing on her keen understanding of his talents, personality, preoccupations, likes and dislikes. She outlines his working methods, describes the inspiration he draws from popular culture, follows him on his constant travels, and explains the interactions necessary for his long-term responsibilities at Olivetti's design division. This is a splendidly complete summary of the career and achievement of Ettore Sottsass, one of the most stimulating, innovative, inspired and entertaining in modern times. Barbara Radice is the editor of Terrazzo and regular contributor to several Italian art and design magazines. She was co-author of Sottsass Associates (1989).

Book excerpt: The new look on the history of art and its blind spots, the far-reaching digitization of structures and content, the changing role of museums and art criticism, new forces from influencers to NFTs: Hardly any market system has evolved as profoundly in the last decade as the distribution of art. With 25 years of experience in the art industry, Dirk Boll acts as a continuous chronicler and seasonal commentator of these pervasive developments. His handbook Art and its Market is a reliable source of in-depth knowledge about the inner workings of global art market systems. How do auctions, the network of galleries, and fairs work? How are prices being made, and how do trends both in the production of art as well as its collection emerge? What is more, this edition provides comprehensive information on the practical issues of art acquisition: What are the customs and pitfalls, the economic interdependencies between the artists, buyers and other market players, and the legal regulations governing the trade with art?
Book Synopsis Ettore Sottsass by : Ronald T. Labaco
Download or read book Ettore Sottsass written by Ronald T. Labaco and published by Merrell. This book was released on 2006 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ettore Sottsass: Architect and Designer - the first significant study of the work of Sottsass for over a decade - emphasizes the continuing diversity and innovation of his professional life while illuminating his personal design philosophy, his belief in the intimate relationship between design and the individual, and his fundamental humanity and joie de vivre. Drawing in particular on the work of the two decades since Sottsass left the Memphis collective, this book reassesses his relationship to Modernism and Postmodernism, analyzes the increasing importance to Sottsass of his own architectural practice, and considers both his acceptance and his rejection of the traditional use of materials. In a series of interviews specially undertaken for this book, Sottsass reflects on the cross-currents of ideas and influences that have guided his long career."--BOOK JACKET.

This book was released on 2019-03-22 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its beginning nearly one hundred fifty years ago, The Metropolitan Museum of Art has been a vital center for the display and collection of the art of its time. As the repository of an encyclopedic collection spanning five thousand years and myriad regions, The Met presents modern and contemporary art in a richly suggestive context. This beautifully illustrated volume, like the Museum’s galleries, gathers paintings, sculptures, photographs, decorative arts, drawings, and works in other media by celebrated artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, juxtaposing them to suggest historical antecedents and evolving cultural practices.

Download or read book Memphis written by Barbara Radice and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 1995 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded in 1981, the international group of architects, Memphis, shook the design world to its foundations. Based in Italy and led by Ettore Sottsass, it overturned and re-shaped the pre-suppositions on which the production of so-called Modern Design is based. It became the almost mythical symbol of the New Design. Laughing out loud at our culture and at itself, Memphis pulled out all stops when it came to colour, pattern, decoration and ornamentation.

Book Synopsis Ettore Sottsass. There is a Planet. Texts and Photographs by : Barbara Radice
Download or read book Ettore Sottsass. There is a Planet. Texts and Photographs written by Barbara Radice and published by Cataloghi di mostre. This book was released on 2017 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electa, with the Triennale Design Museum in Milan, publishes a new project proposed by Barbara Radice for the centenary of Ettore Sottsass' birth and ten years after his death (Innsbruck 1917-Milan 2007). Sottsass worked on the There is a Planet project in collaboration with Nanae Umeda for the German publisher Wasmuth in the 1990s.00It features photographs taken in 40 years of his travels around the world, focused on living and the human presence on the planet in general. There are pictures of uncontaminated nature (views of rivers, forests, sea expanses, rocks and strongly aesthetic features studied close-up, from Algeria to Polynesia, the Caribbean and his beloved Eolie islands) as well as architecture, houses, people and unusual, profoundly human situations. All are grouped by theme and introduced with sketches and comments on life. The Sottsass project ? which gathered these pictures in five groups, under five different titles and with as many texts ? remained unfinished and the book was never published. Conceived by the great master, There is a Planet is now being reproposed, convinced as we are that it provides readers with important insight into the original and radical angle from which Ettore Sottsass viewed the world.00Exhibition: Triennale Design Museum at the Galleria dell'Architettura, Milan, Italy (15.09.2017-11.03.2018).
Download or read book Hancox written by Charlotte Moore and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hancox is the Tudor hall house in rural Sussex where Charlotte Moore grew up, and where she lives today. It's a time warp where little has changed since her family took it on in 1888. They were a diverse family of doctors and soldiers, liberal politicians and educational pioneers. What they all had in common though was a habit of writing everything down and never throwing anything away. Every cupboard and every drawer is crammed with relics of family history - letters, diaries, sketchbooks, photograph albums, even old shopping lists and chequebook stubs - which together constitute a huge archive of Victorian and Edwardian family life containing fascinating stories of love and jealousy, heroism and defeat, riches and poverty as well as snapshots of the wider world beyond of Hastings, London and the empire. Told with a novelist's vigour, Hancox offers a richly detailed portrait of a vanished way of life: an English country house at the turn of the twentieth century, just before the tragedy of the First World War, with its presiding family, its servants, its farm and its local village.
Book Synopsis SuperDesign by : Maria Cristina Didero
Download or read book SuperDesign written by Maria Cristina Didero and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SuperDesign charts the Italian Radicals’ bold experimentation in modern design from its birth through its continued influence on design today. Radical Design was launched by art, architecture, and design students in Italy in the mid-1960s. What started as a youthful rally against the establishment and a rejection of design norms became a movement that brought together some of the most dynamic and avant-garde thinkers and makers across the country. Through enigmatic, confrontational, and clever furniture and objects—such as the iconic lip-shaped Bocca sofa, or the Cactus coat-rack in green foam—as well as more public innovations including discotheque interiors and subversive performances, the Radicals projected design’s new era as equal parts Pop Art, play, Surrealism, and futurism. Told through exclusive interviews, unreleased photographs, original drawings and artwork unearthed from personal archives, and newly commissioned photography of rarely seen works, SuperDesign explores this fervent period of design that played out against the era’s social and political turmoil. Featured designers include Archizoom Associati, Lapo Binazzi (UFO), Pietro Derossi (Gruppo Strum), Piero Gilardi, Ugo La Pietra, Gaetano Pesce, Gianni Pettena, Studio65, and Superstudio. The culmination of a decade of collecting and researching original examples of some of the most important and iconic works of the period, SuperDesign offers a unique new introduction to the legacy of the Italian Radicals.

Book Synopsis The Domestic and the Foreign in Architecture by : Ruth Baumeister
Download or read book The Domestic and the Foreign in Architecture written by Ruth Baumeister and published by 010 Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, across nations, dialogue between the domestic and the foreign has affected and transformed architecture. Today these dialogues have become highly intensified. The Domestic and the Foreign in Architecture examines how these exchanges manifest themselves in contemporary architecture, in terms of its aesthetic potential and its practice, which, in turn, are impacted by broad economic, cultural and political issues. This book traces how diverse cultural encounters inevitably modify conventional categories, standards and codes of architecture, such as domestic identity, its political and economic representations and the negotiations with what is deemed foreign. Theoretical reflections by distinguished scholars are accompanied by interviews with some of the most influential architects practicing today, as well as stunning visual presentations by professional photographers.
