Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Italian-born American Harry Bertoia (1915-78) was one of the most prolific and innovative artists and designers of the postwar period. Trained at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, where he met future colleagues and collaborators, such as Charles and Ray Eames, Florence Knoll, and Eero Saarinen, he went on to make one-of-a kind jewelry, design iconic chairs, create thousands of unique sculptures including large-scale commissions for significant buildings, and advance the use of sound as sculptural material. His work speaks to the confluence of numerous fields of endeavor but is united throughout by a sculptural approach to making and an experimental embrace of metal. Harry Bertoia: Sculpting Mid-Century Modern Life accompanies the first US museum retrospective of the artist's career to examine the full scope of his broad, interdisciplinary practice and feature important examples of his furniture, jewelry, monotypes, and diverse sculptural output. Lavishly illustrated, the book offers new scholarly essays as well as a catalog of the artist's numerous large-scale commissions. It questions how and why we distinguish between a chair, a necklace, a screen, and a freestanding sculpture-and what Bertoia's sculptural things, when taken together, say about the fluidity of visual language across culture, both at mid-century and now.; Der ursprünglich aus Italien stammende Amerikaner Harry Bertoia (1915-1978) zählt zu den produktivsten und innovativsten Künstlern und Designern der Nachkriegszeit. Nach seiner Ausbildung an der Cranbrook Academy of Art, wo er Charles und Ray Eames, Florence Knoll und Eero Saarinen kennenlernte, fertigte Bertoia einzigartige Schmuckobjekte und ikonische Möbelentwürfe. Er schuf Tausende von Plastiken, darunter grossformatige Auftragsarbeiten für Gebäude wie das Aon Center in Chicago, in denen er mit Klang als skulpturalem Material experimentierte. In Harry Bertoia: Sculpting Mid-Century Modern Life nimmt sich eine neue Generation von Expertinnen und Experten seiner vielfältigen, interdisziplinären Praxis an. Anhand herausragender Beispiele seiner Möbel, Monotypien, Schmuckstücke und Skulpturen wirft das Buch neues Licht auf Bertoias Werk im Kontext des Modernismus. Der reich illustrierte Band in englischer Sprache beinhaltet neue wissenschaftliche Beiträge und ein Verzeichnis von Bertoias grossformatigen Auftragsarbeiten. Sein mannigfaltiges Werk offenbart beispielhaft die fliessenden Grenzen innerhalb des Visuellen - sowohl Mitte des letzten Jahrhunderts als auch heute.
