Although she has heavily influenced generations of artists and designers, her contribution to modernist art history has been comparatively overlooked, especially in relation to that of her husband, Josef. In this groundbreaking and beautifully illustrated volume, Albers's most important works are examined to fully explore and redefine her contribution to 20th-century art and design and highlight her significance as an artist in her own right. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Featured works--from her early activity at the Bauhaus as well as from her time at Black Mountain College, and spanning her entire fruitful career--include wall hangings, designs for commercial use, drawings and studies, jewelry, and prints. Essays by international experts focus on key works and themes, relate aspects of Albers's practice to her seminal texts \u003ci\u003eOn Designing\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eOn Weaving\u003c\/i\u003e, and identify broader contextual material, including examples of the Andean textiles that Albers collected and in which she found inspiration for her understanding of woven thread as a form of language. Illuminating Albers's skill as a weaver, her material awareness, and her deep understanding of art and design, this publication celebrates an artist of enormous importance and showcases the timeless nature of her creativity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished in association with Tate \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen\u003c\/b\u003e, D?seldorf, Germany\u003cbr\u003e (06\/09\/18-09\/09\/18)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTate Modern, London\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (10\/11\/18-01\/27\/19)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnn Coxon\u003c\/b\u003e is curator of international art at Tate, London.\u003cb\u003e Briony Fer\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of art history at University College London.\u003cb\u003e Maria M?ler-Schareck\u003c\/b\u003e is curator of modern and contemporary art at Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, D?seldorf, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.87 x 10.39 x 8.27 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 07, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51765241970976,"sku":"9780300237252","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/6a6e76f1d29a29ff4f1f38bd4161c96a.webp?v=1780264791","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/anni-albers-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
