Synopsis

This collection of conversations on the subject of time between a legendary couturier and leaders and influencers in the worlds of art, design, and popular culture will inspire you to take greater control over your life and develop your creativity.

One of the characteristics of modern-day life seems to be that we are doing more and more at an ever-increasing rate. Uncompromising couturier and avant-garde leader Azzedine Alaïa hosted salon-style discussions between creative luminaries on this subject. The result is a collection of never-before-published conversations between some of the most famous minds of our generation about time--an increasingly valuable commodity in twenty-first century society. Taking Time presents musings from some of the world's most respected figures in cinema, music, and fashion: Jonathan Ive and Marc Newson discuss time as the first ergonomic product; Julian Schnabel and Jean-Claude Carrière consider it in respect to art and film; and Robert Wilson and Isabel Huppert speak about the importance of time in theater and acting. Throughout the conversations, the reader discovers ways of appreciating and managing time that are helpful and will embolden you to manifest your creativity and enjoy life to the fullest--and to truly take your time.
