FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 192 pp. ; 151 illus. 140 in color. -- with a bonus offer--; Setting out to celebrate document and discuss the work and role of an international tapestry workshop Dovecot Studios since its foundation in Edinburgh in 1912 this ground-breaking publication uniquely explores the artistic value nature and identity of modern tapestry through images essays and the commentaries of weavers artists and patrons. Dovecot Studios has constantly evolved since it was established before the Great War. Initial Arts and Crafts ideals developed into a more proactive engagement with modernism from the 1950s when designs came from leading British artists such as Graham Sutherland Henry Moore Stanley Spencer Cecil Beaton and John Piper. In the 1960s international ambition partnered a quest for experimentation as characterised by collaborations with artists such as Eduardo Paolozzi David Hockney Robert Motherwell and Louise Nevelson. Throughout Dovecot's long history many Scottish artists have worked with the tapestry studio and their intuitive sense of design and colour has often been richly matched by the imagination of the artist weavers. Experiment and partnership with innovative artists and makers have been and actively remain key to Dovecot's unique position within the fields of craft and contemporary art. Discussing Dovecot's history along with its contemporary work and exploring the range of textiles produced by the Studio - which include wall hangings chair-cover designs carpets textile mobiles and formal robes - The Art of Modern Tapestry offers the definitive account of one of the world's most innovative centres of textile-art production. . 2012. 1848221053 .

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 210 pp. ; 9 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; Peter Weir has been directing Hollywood films since his successful US debut Witness in 1985. But does this make him a Hollywood director Or should he still be considered an Australian filmmaker as many scholars argue For the first time Weir’s entire three-decade creative journey from Australia to Hollywood is considered in light of the recent theories on transnational cinema and through a close examination of four key films: Picnic at Hanging Rock The Year of Living Dangerously Witness and The Truman Show The films’ analyses integrate original interviews with Weir and his closest collaborators including Russell Boyd. The book concludes that Weir is both an Australian and a Hollywood filmmaker—and would be better seen as a transnational filmmaker whose success in the United States reflects the fact that he was already a “Hollywood” director by the time he relocated. . 2012. 1841504777 .

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 212 pp. ; 169 illus. 77 in color. -- with a bonus offer--; Much recent scholarship in American art history and cultural studies examines cross-cultural exchanges in the shaping of American art and culture. This lavishly illustrated volume contributes to this endeavor by exploring through seven scholarly essays and more than 150 color and back-and-white images how the transatlantic encounters of three of America's most notable nineteenth- and early twentieth-century artists helped mold American art. Robert Walter Weir 1803-1889 and his sons John Ferguson Weir 1841-1926 and Julian Alden Weir 1852-1919 saw themselves as heirs to European art traditions and repeatedly crossed the Atlantic to connect with their artistic heritage. Yet they lived painted and taught in New York and New England where they were leaders in American art. Robert taught art at West Point John founded the first academic art program on a U.S. college campus at Yale and Julian was a major American impressionist. Their combined works provide a compendium of the painting genres produced in Europe and America across an entire century. Through letters diaries histories and paintings this book examines the lives of the American men and women of the Weir art dynasty and their explorations of the wider world--from the Hudson River Valley to London Paris and Rome. . 2011. 1611680212 .
