rif. 63646Strandberg T&H distr 2024. Hardcover 272 pages ENG. edition 285 x 190 x 25 mm NEW over 300 illustrations in colour / b/w. Small text. ISBN 9788792596635. Lamp design is a field that continues to attract great attention from both designers and design aficionados. With Poul Henningsen's iconic PH-lamp as its point of departure the book tells the stories behind 100 Danish lamp designs through text and images and introduces the reader to the inventions that enabled the first revolutionizing light sources. Lighting is a key element in 'hygge' - the Danish definition of a warm and cosy ambience. Although hard-core functionalists like Henningsen called for form to follow function real-life factors required them to compromise and this came to define Danish lamp design: hygge is a crucial quality that had to be included in the design. Thus the purpose of the modern Danish lamp was- and is - not only to provide light but also to act as a decorative element and to spread a cosy ambience. Strandberg (T&H distr) 2024 hardcover

Any given year in the future - 2008 at the earliest - approximately 1.025 fabric panels will be suspended horizontally high above the Arkansas river bed covering an 11.3 kilometer range between Salida and Parkdale. The stream of successive panels - suspended 2 to 7 meters above the river - will be interrupted by bridges rocks trees and bushes while wide clearance between the banks and the edges of the translucent fabric panels will allow sunlight to illuminate the river.

These drawings lithographs collages and scale models are presented in this book together with numerous photographs of their meetings and their trips to the Rocky Mountains.

A collaborative work between these two prominent Surrealists in which Ernst produced 19 illustrations for the first chapter of Crevel's 1927 novel Babylone translated into English by Kay Boyle and published by Caresse Crosby's Black Sun Press. "The white-on-black images do a fine job of representing the dark visions of death and desire that come to the young girl in Crevel's story: "What is death What is a whore Death is something like Cousin Cynthia." Ernst chose quotations from the book to appear as titles under the prints. He also collaborated with the book's binder A.J. Gonon to produce the black binding with gold tooling that is reminiscent of the bindings on old nineteenth-century sentimental fictions" Roth 101 p.66. Slocum 1914-1997 was an American diplomat literary agent and bibliophile whose collection of James Joyce material supplied the basis for the now standard bibliography by Slocum and Herbert Cahoon and whose contributions to scholarship on Joyce are inestimable. A copy with distinguished provenance having passed variously from its publisher to the hands of Henry Miller two poets and a prominent bibliophile while cycling through the rare book trade over the last seven decades.
