Trade Paperback. Condition: Used - Good. 'At Home with Art' reconsiders the domestic environment as a context for contemporary art by discussing an exhibition of specially commissioned works that will be made available to the general public at affordable prices. It is in our homes that we express our personal tastes, yet as a place for the display of works of art the home has become marginalized in favor of public and institutional spaces. As a challenge to this stererotypical view, nine of Britain's leading sculptors--Angela Bulloch, Tony Cragg, Richard Deacon, Antony Gormley, Anish Kapoor, Permindar Kaur, David Mach, Richard Wentworth, and Alison Wilding--have been commissioned to design multiples which will be manufactured and made available in stores throughout England. 'At Home with Art 'documents the project in progress and includes an essay by curator Colin Painter. The texts are supplemented by photographs of the artists' drawings, prototypes, and finished objects. At Home With Art aims to reconsider the domestic environment as a context for contemporary art, challenging the stereotypical view that the home represents everything that contemporary art is not. Book has minor shelf wear.

They arrived with their daughter and five of six sons and, like many early settlers, became farmers. Elder sons, William junior and James soon became proficient brewers and in 1843 founded the Oakbank Brewery, one of South Australia's earliest. Later, younger brother, Andrew became involved with the brewery and by the mid 1850s, he and James owned and operated it and had founded a hotel group to distribute their ailes and other beverages. J. & A.G. Johnston Limited has witnessed numerous successes and challenges in more than 160 years as a family business: Brewers & Hoteliers provides a detailed insight into the dynamics of a South Australian icon".
