About the Item
This book offers a unique perspective on the decorative arts of the mid-twentieth century. The first serious book on a period just beginning to be researched by scholars and little know to collectors, it focuses on 200 of the finest objects from the most important designers and artists of the time. Together with some 300 comparative illustrations, these works create a rich and surprisingly diversified image of the design that today we call Modern.
No overview of this period would be complete without the giants of modern design, whether early - Alvar Aalto, Marcel Breuer, Charles and Ray Eames, Eero Saarinen - or later- Ettore Sottsass, Mario Bellini, Peter Voulkos, and Sheila Hicks. Indeed, they are all represented, as are the seminal objects - Russel Wright's American Modern dinnerware, Hans Wegner's Round chair, Isamu Nogucji's Japanese-inspired lamps, Tapio Wirkkala's Kanttarelli vases, Verner Panton's plastic chair, Maija Isola's Marimekko fabrics. The selections are evenly balanced between industrial design and crafts. Hardback. Text in English. 424 pages. 2220 grams.
