Présentation de l'éditeur
With a trailblazing career that spans more than seventy-five years and continues to this day, Eva Ziesel stands at the forefront of twentieth-century designers. Her works, mostly in ceramics and glass, are the expression of a profoundly independent vision, unconstrained by design conventions, fads, or ideologies, and are featured in the permanent collections of museums throughout the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art. Her belly-button wall dividers are part of the modern décor in the lobby of the Standard Hotel in Los Angeles. In this lavishly illustrated, full colour book, the designed for the first time communicates the ideas that have guided and inspired her work throughout her career. Each aspect of the design process is analysed - variety, spontaneity, line, contour, shading, and texture, among others - to show how the best works emerge out of a dialogue between creator and object who's result is an environment that is pleasurable, comfortable, and elegant. The language in which this dialogue is conducted, 'the language of things' is one in which Ziesel's fluency is unparalleled, and her thoughts, read alongside photographs of her stunning creations and of those that have inspired her, make this book indispensable to every enthusiast of art, ceramics, and design.
Revue de presse
She is absolutely one of the greats of twentieth-century design... Her work is about the emotional effect objects have on us. It is the most essential and meaningful activity --Christopher Wilk, Chief Curator, Department of Furniture and Woodwork, The Victoria & Albert Museum
In the design whorl Ziesel has always been ahead of, or outside, her time. She produced rounded shapes and celebrated colour and pattern while serious design proposed straight lines, functionalism, and minimalism... Ziesel has always been more than a grande dame of design. She is justly revered for enlivening the 20th century with elegant, expressive modern ceramics --Linda Hales, The Washington Post
Ziesel's designs are timelessly lyrical and sensuous... She is more than an industrial ceramist who made a significant impression in the 20th century. She is an artist who has not lost her muse: life --Sahid Zardar, San Francisco Chronicle
