Items related to Minh Häusler: The Fusion of Flora and Art (English...
Ikebana means “living flowers.” This literal meaning discloses a form of artistic expression in which the natural beauty of the flowers and blossoms unfolds in conversation with the artist’s powerful formal language. Fundamental to the art form is a close and contemplative observation of the natural world, which in turn offers itself as a boundless source of inspiration.
Minh Häusler studied the Japanese art of ikebana in Singapore and Hong Kong. Steeped in the art form’s long and rich tradition, she has combined this tradition with her own unmistakable style. Today, she is a master of the modern Sogetsu School of Ikebana. The first book on this important artist, Minh Häusler: The Fusion of Flora and Art reproduces in sumptuous full-color more than two hundred photographs of Häusler’s work. Carefully composed by the artist herself, the photographs are stunningly beautiful, the line and color of the flowers redolent with meaning against simple black or white settings.
Häusler’s lavish photographs—together with texts that provide insight into the artist’s process—make this a book that will inspire anyone with an appreciation of this beautiful and timeless art. Häusler is a master of her craft, and Minh Häusler: The Fusion of Flora and Art reflects her at the height of her career.

Review:
“The wealth of images alone speaks to Häusler’s devotion to sculpting flora, but upon reading her introduction to the book it’s even more evident that her relationship to the organic material stems from a deep kinship with nature and a fervent respect for her environment. . . . Rather than works one might brush off as simply decorative objects, each arrangement is invigorated with life, occupying the blank space rather than merely existing in it.”

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In Minh Hausler's oeuvre art and nature come together to form an unusual symbiosis. The floral creations made by the photographer and master of the Sogetsu School of Ikebana mesmerise the viewer with their clear and simultaneously powerful formal language, which allows the natural beauty of the flowers and blossoms to fully unfold.The literal meaning of the Japanese term "ikebana" is "living flowers". The observation of nature therefore also represents one of the fundamental artistic principles of the artist Minh Hausler, who is originally from Vietnam. This is the source of her inspiration, which she transforms into delicate and powerfully expressive arrangements. Minh Hausler learned the art of ikebana, which is steeped in tradition, in Asia before developing her own, unmistakable style in Europe. Nowadays she teaches all over the world and presents more than 200 selected pieces from her oeuvre for the first time in this publication. In doing so, she showcases the various levels and styles of this timeless art, which strives for perfect harmony.
