Paperback. Condition: New. In the 1960s and 1970s, a generation of young Americans rejected the promise of prosperity and the suburban dream embraced by their parents. Furious about the war in Vietnam, fighting for civil rights at home, and eagerly exploring the effects of psychedelic drugs, the delights of free love, and the mystical teachings of eastern religions, thousands followed the advice to "turn on, tune in, drop out," bringing about a counterculture in the process. For many American jewellers, these events and values found their way into the studio, as well as affecting how they lived, worked, and loved. Jewellers, like other studio craftspeople, rode the wave of popularity for the hand-made and authentic that was at the heart of the counterculture.In Flux is the story of how their jewellery contributed to the raucous, contradictory, and enthusiastic clamour for a new kind of society that made the 1960s and 1970s so extraordinary.…

This fascinating book outlines the key aspects of lighting as a unique and creative artistic discipline and examines themes such as different typologies, the quality of light, and the evolution of the bulb. A series of essays by Sarah Schleuning and Cindi Strauss showcase lighting designs from different time periods and geographic locations and feature the work of significant figures, including Poul Henningsen, Ingo Maurer, and Gino Sarfatti. With over 130 illustrations of functional-and sometimes fantastical-designs, a historical timeline, and comprehensive artist biographies, this handsome volume expands our understanding of an understudied but influential art form and demonstrates lighting's central role as both an expression of and a catalyst for innovations in modern and contemporary design." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Director's foreword, by Gary Tinterow; Introduction, by Sarah Schleuning and Cindi Strauss; Timeline, by Sarah Marie Horne; Typologies, by Cindi Strauss; Poul Henningsen, by Cindi Strauss; The Museum of Modern Art's lamp design competition and New lamps exhibition, 1950-51, by Cindi Strauss; The naked bulb as inspiration, by Sarah Schleuning; Ingo Maurer, by Sarah Schleuning; Awards for lighting design, by Cindi Strauss; Gino Sarfatti, by Cindi Strauss; Quality of light, by Sarah Schleuning.

Additional shipping charges may be requested for international & priority orders. A massive coffee-table book. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "An essential new look at the design philosophy that interrogated modern living against the turbulent political landscape of 1960s Italy In the mid-1960s, reacting to contemporary social and political upheaval, young Italian architects and designers began developing a new style that openly challenged Modernism. Known as 'Radical design,' this movement probed possibilities for visually transforming the urban environment. Radical design's proponents also applied it to items such as furniture and lighting, utilizing alternative materials and an innovative formal vocabulary. Radical: Italian Design 1965-1985 surveys the work of these pioneering designers through nearly 70 objects and architectural models - including rare prototypes and limited-production pieces. Cindi Strauss insightfully explores the aesthetic inspiration and changing cultural mores that informed the movement, and her research is complemented by an essay from Germano Celant, the acclaimed author and curator who coined the term 'Radical design.' Importantly, the book includes seven interviews with Radical designers and architects, offering fresh insights into the individuals who were at the vanguard of this groundbreaking movement.'" - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Foreword, by Gary Tinterow; Acknowledgments, by Cindi Strauss; Interview with Dennis Freedman; Introduction, by Cindi Strauss; Italian Design: From Pop to Radical, by Germano Celant; Italian Radical Design in the United States: Exposure, Availability, and Legacy, by Cindi Strauss; Interview with Franco and Nana Audrito, Studio65; Interview with Lapo Binazzi, UFO; Interview with Andrea Branzi; Interview with Alessandro Guerriero; Interview with Ugo La Pietra; Interview with Alessandro Mendini; Interview with Franco Raggi.
