Hardcover. Etat : Good. 208 pages. used minor wear / marks creases & shelf wear to djDrawing upon the rich collections of Temple Newsam House in West Yorkshire and t he J Paul Getty Museum in California, Taking Shape focuses on the inventive imag ination of Baroque and Rococo that dominated sculpture and the decorative arts i n the 17th and 18th centuries and presents it in a new light. Including a divers e range of objects - richly-carved console tables and candle-stands, a spectacul ar mirror and clock, statuettes, bronzes and busts, etchings and engravings - th e works feature all manner of fantastic motifs. Angels and deities, foliage and flowers metamorphose into animals and mythological figures, abstract scrolls and invented ornaments. Normally seen in the context of the period room, their pres entation within a contemporary gallery space offers the viewer the opportunity t o focus on the objects themselves. Ultimately, the exhibition suggests that scul pture can be understood not only in terms of autonomous figural form, but as ope rating more prolifically as a quality that informs spatial practices as a whole, thereby embracing furniture and decorative art as innately sculptural modes of expression. Published alongside an exhibition at The Henry Moore Institute, Leed s and The J Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, 2008 - 2009. N° de réf. du vendeur 1142f
