Items related to garden on my cheek
Poetry. Art. Illustrated by Liane Birnberg. Ever since John Berger first saw Liane Birnberg's artwork in her studio many years ago, they have been connected in a friendship of high productivity for Liane. He says that her artwork has 'eyes' and continuously sends her his new books, which function as catapults for her work. Language plays a significant role in Liane Birnberg's images, but it is only recognizable through pure graphics. The words are embedded in micro-glass beads; they become distorted, and other lines and forms engulf everything. The text and the image merge, though neither belongs to the other. GARDEN ON MY CHEEK is the third book by John Berger and Liane Birnberg. The book is released by PalmArtPress in celebration of John Berger's 90th birthday.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Birnberg, Liane (illustrator). Neuware - Seitdem John Berger vor vielen Jahren Bilder von Liane Birnberg in ihrem Atelier gesehen hat, verbindet sie eine für Liane höchst produktive Freundschaft. Er sagt, dass ihre Bilder 'Augen' hätten und schickt ihr regelmäßig seine neuen Bücher. Diese wirkten für ihre Arbeiten wie ein Katapult.In den Bildern von Liane Birnberg spielt die Sprache eine gewisse Rolle; sie ist aber nur rein graphisch erkennbar. Die Wörter werden eingebettet in Microglaskugeln, sie werden verfremdet und andere Linien und Formen verschlingen alles. Text und Bild wächst zusammen, aber keins gehört dem anderen. Garden On My Cheek ist das dritte Buch von John Berger und Liane Birnberg. Als Vorwort hat Jürgen Wellbrock einen Essay geschrieben. Das Buch erscheint in PalmArtPress zu John Bergers neunzigstem Geburtstag. Seller Inventory # 9783941524774
