Description:
Denmark 1990. There is nothing static or stationary about these wonderful old trees. Their limbs twist and grope and seem to be moving as you view them; they have been buffeted by sea winds and so reach out at unpredictable and agonizing angles; or they are leafless and bore-holed, suggesting a valiant, if unsuccessful, bid for suvival. This is a book for the illustrator and the lover of nature., Danish, Year1990, Illust. B/W42, Illust. Color3, ISBN 8788014630, Code 1999. Clothbound, In Pristine Condition, Bio.

Description:
New York 2008. Eero Saarinen and Balthazar Korab constitute a unique team in the history of architecture: Saarinen, the mid-twentieth-century architect who challenged the architectural conventions of his time; and Korab, an architect in Saarinen's office whose perceptive photographs reveal the brilliance of Saarinen's work. This visual sourcebook illustrates nineteen Saarinen commissions in photographs drawn from Korab's archive, providing multiple views of the buildings themselves and some views of their construction and of architectural models that were critical to their design. Images of Saarinen's office and home provide personal ambience, and an introductory essay positions Saarinen's work within the broader context of his time. Seen in detail, such earlier works as the General Motors Technical Center (1948-56) or the Miller house (1953-57) show departures from orthodox modernism; Saarinen's assured handling of new materials and new building functions impart lasting value to his career, as seen…

Description:
England 2002. Saarinen now ranks as one of the great masters of 20th century American architecture. Fusing expressive form, technical innovation and functional requirement, he created a diverse body of work that invariably pleased his clients and the public at large, if not the architectural critics of the day. During his brief career, he designed such beloved landmarks as the TWA Terminal at New Yorks Kennedy Airport, the Gateway Arch in St. Louis and Dulles Airport outside Washington, D.C. His designs at the Knoll company, including his Tulip and Womb chairs, remain favorites the world over. With this groundbreaking and lavishly illustrated monograph, historian Antonio Roman sheds new light on Saarinens most important works and argues convincingly for his revelance as a pivotal figure in the history of American architecture., English, Year2002, Illust.

This beautiful book focuses on the 12 year period that Sahlin spent as designer for the prestigious Kosta Boda glassworks, a period that saw the internationally renowned glass company leap into bold new directions. Not a craftsman herself, Sahlin brought with her a host of ideas from unrelated disciplines and her experiments tested the limits of traditional concepts in glass design. Along with the craftsmen and glassblowers, she created extraordinary works of lasting beauty. Stunning images of her work presented in a playful, creative, and personal layout make this book an aesthetic delight. , English, YearNo year, Illust. B/W70, Illust.

Description:
Sweden 1998. An introduction into the gorgeous sculptural work by Saint Clair Cemin in Prilap marble. The unfinished quality of many of his pieces express his hostility to copies and the excesses of implication. Rather than seeking harmony in a completed sculptural object, Saint Clair Cemin focuses on the congruence between diverse materials and forms. In the words of Remo Guidieri, harmony strips away the splits and incompatibilities; it homologizes contradictions and enigmas, dispelling the false obviousness of their appearance. In this way, Saint Clairs seemingly unfinished, often rough, pieces express a soothing quality radiating harmony and balance. , English/ Italian, Year1998, Illust. B/W, Illust.

Description:
Sweden 1998. During the Middle Ages, Saint George, the great martyr and dragonslayer, became one of the most popular figures in the West, the national saint of England, and the patron saint of Moscow and Barcelona, for example. Up until the present day he has been represented in innumerable depictions all over Europe. Remarkably enough, the most consummate representation of Saint George is to be found in Stockholm. This is because, more than five centuries ago, a Swedish regent granted the leading artist in the Baltic region unique resources so that he could produce something exceptional. The elaborate sculptural group with its larger- than- life statues was inaugurated in Stockholm City Church on New Years Eve 1489 by an emmissary from the Pope., English, Year1998, Illust.
