Cara Manes: Ruth Asawa: The Tamarind Prints, Gebunden

Klappentext

The first publication dedicated to Asawa's stunning lithographs, which have never been published in full

Over the course of just two months in 1965, away from her six children at a residency at the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles, Ruth Asawa produced a stunning portfolio of 54 lithographs in a burst of experimentation. Asawa was already known for her wire sculptures but had never confined herself to one medium, working also in bronze, drawing, painting, and select printmaking techniques. The resulting prints, depicting an astonishing range of subject matter, are a standout collection in Asawa's oeuvre, and an incredible display of the skill at the center of her practice.
