Product Details - Bertoia Book
Last update July 04, 2024 Effective date July 04, 2024
Description
From chapel altarpieces and bronze fountains, to wire chairs and silver brooches, Harry Bertoia's creative output was varied in the extreme. This book explores all aspects of the artist's creative output, from his jewelry and iconic furniture to his monoprints, architectural sculptures, and sonambients. Bertoia also explores his life story. In doing so, the book demonstrates how seemingly disparate works are in fact united in being reflections of nature, and places Bertoia's art squarely at the heart of American modernism.
