Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Luminous and tranquil, Saars newest installation uses natural objects and materials to take the viewer on a spiritual journeyThis volume features the Huntington Library and Museums commissioned site-specific installation Drifting toward Twilight (2023) by Betye Saar (born 1926). A solitary canoe drifts on a bed of brambles, illuminated by a cool neon glow. Inside, three passengers are transported to a mystical destination by two otherworldly beings. Guided by the dawn, the dusk and the phases of the moon, they transition from one cosmic reality to another. Part dreamscape and part altar, Drifting toward Twilight conjures journeys and the constant cycles of the natural world. Like cards pulled from a tarot deck, each object inside takes on a symbolic power: a monumental canoe, birdcages, antlers and plant material harvested from the Huntingtons grounds. This richly illustrated companion book includes a preface and a 1973 interview with the artist by author and longtime friend Ishmael Reed. Other contributions include a profile by Hilton Als and a new interview with the artist by Sola Saar Agustsson, her granddaughter.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. From theatrical costumes to leather accessories and jewelry, Saars early wearable artworks are as transformative as her assemblagesOrganized around Betye Saars early work in costume and jewelry design during the 1960s and 1970s, Lets Get It On explores how this formative period profoundly shaped her pioneering work in assemblage and installation. Through original drawings, essays, archival materials and installation images, the book traces Saars evolution from designer to artist, revealing the enduring connections between her wearable creations and her broader visual language. It features newly commissioned scholarship alongside rare photographs, sketches, jewelry, garments and ephemera from Saars personal archives, offering fresh insight into the artists lifelong engagement with materials, memory and Black cultural expression. The book also includes a custom-designed sewing pattern by Betye Saar, inspired by her studio practice. This set features comprehensive instructions, precision-cut pattern pieces and an exclusive artist-designed iron-on: everything you need to spark your own creative journey. Lets Get It On provides an invaluable resource for understanding the full scope of Saars creative practice and her influence across generations.Betye Saar (born 1926) is renowned for pioneering Black feminism and West Coast assemblage in her visionary artistic practice, through dense, complexly referential objects.
