Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This collection of photographs by British fashion designer Paul Smith and his father, Harold Smith, is an attractive, collectible, prelude to a major book by Paul Smith, to be published by Violette Editions in autumn 2001.

Paperback. Condición: Fine. 1st. 312 pages, [64] pages of plates, illustrations (some colour); 23 cm. Tight, clean copy. *** "The notoriously controversial statements, writings, manifesto art works and interviews of British duo Gilbert & George are collected here for the first time. Spanning nearly three decades, this unique anthology includes previously unpublished texts, passages from the rare editions Side by Side (1971) and Dark Shadow (1974), as well as conversations with Gordon Burn, Shere Hite, Wolf Jahn, Dave Stewart, and many others.

This is a delightful compendium, revealing these artists' prodigious talent for creating paradoxes which, surprisingly, bring hope and passion to our century's neon rush." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.

Paperback. Condición: VG. White and color-illustrated wraps with green and black lettering. 175 pp. Color and BW illustrations. Leigh Bowery is back. In just a few years, Leigh Bowery Looks rose to the status of being the definitive and indispensible guide to the unique looks designed and, in these photographs, worn by Bowery. This paperback edition shows one of Britain's most heroically ambitious yet underappreciated designers and performance artists. Bowery remains an inspiration to many contemporary fashion designers, though few are willing to admit it. Leigh Bowery Looks contains 300 photographs of Bowery--an extraordinary body of work that was the outcome of his collaboration with British photographer Fergus Greer between 1988 and 1994, the year of Bowery's death. Here the range of Bowery's many looks is most evident, as are the ways in which he has influenced the world of fashion today.…

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. A collaboration between Louise Bourgeois and Gary Indiana pairs her beautiful colour-wash male and female torso images with his wordpoems, creating a meditation on relationships, sexuality and physicality. To Whom It May Concern is one of the final projects Louise Bourgeois completed, and is an apt demonstration of the enduring power of her work. Rich pinks, purples, reds and blues describe bodies comprising swollen bellies, heavy breasts, engorged phalluses and stooped torsos are presented in a series of pairings on facing pages. Deceptively simple in design, the varying intensity and range of colour within each figure reveals a dynamism in each repeated coupling of these headless, limbless bodies: male and female at their essential, and the relationship between the two, changing but the same. Indiana's short, visceral but lyrical texts are interspersed throughout and form a conversation with these images, an unconventional non-narrative, part of a broader dialogue about the barrier of flesh, about desire and intimacy. This Violette Editions publication, developed in collaboration with The Easton Foundation, faithfully reproduces in reduced size the original large-format artists' book, made in fabric in an edition of seven.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. The book is in very good condition, minor shelf rubbing. Text and images inside appear clean and clear throughout. 'Dixonary is a comprehensive book on one of Britain's best-known and most highly regarded product designers. In his own words, and with hundreds of comparative illustrations interleaved with text, this self-taught designer illuminates the often surprising ideas behind his finished pieces. Dixon transforms notions of plumpness observed in a painting of an overfed sow into an overstuffed sofa; or gigantic concrete sea defences on the coast of Japan become the distinctive shape of his famous stacked Jack Light. Dixonary is, in Dixon's words, "a simple picture book with short 'stories' attached--stories that present in an ordered and bite-sized way an approximately chronological sweep through the last three decades of topics and techniques that interest me and the things I have made."A child of the punk era, Dixon (born 1959) founded his own studio in the 1980s following his discovery of the pleasures of welding while repairing damaged motorcycle frames. He became Head of Design at Habitat in 1998 before reestablishing his own brand, Tom Dixon--a lighting and furniture design and manufacturing company--in 2002. He has also been Creative Director at Artek, the Finnish furniture company founded by Alvar and Aino Aalto.' 614 pages. 6 x 8.45 inches. May require additional postage.
