The work of one of the most successful and creative contemporary designers.
Even among the most influential designers of our time, Ron Arad stands out for the versatile nature of his work & his daredevil use of materials & technology. This book examines his work, and includes an interview with Arad plus plates, sketches and renderings of over 150 objects and spaces.
Combining playful forms and experiments with advanced technologies, Ron Arad (1951-) has emerged as one of the most influential designers of our time. Born in Tel Aviv, he moved to London in 1973 to study architecture and made his name in the early 1980s as a self-taught designer-maker of sculptural furniture. Although Arad has been better known as a designer than an architect in the years since he graduated the Architectural Association, architectural projects have been continuous. Commissions for retail and restaurant interiors followed the opening of his Covent Garden and Chalk Farm studios, notably the Belgo restaurants in London 1994 and 1995, the 2001 technology floor of the Selfridges department store in London and the 2003 Y's Store for the Japanese fashion designer Yohji Yamamoto in Tokyo. Arad's largest built project is the 1994 Tel Aviv Opera House, for which he and his then architectural partner Alison Brooks designed a series of autonomous curvilinear structures within the foyer of a building which was the work of another architect. This book is the first to survey Arad's architecture from 1991 to the present day.
This title in the series devoted to the work of contemporary British architects and designers concentrates on the work of Ron Arad, who designed the first concrete stereo system, made armchairs out of recycled carseats from old Rovers and turned a stack of bricklayers hods into bookshelves.
American artist Elizabeth Peyton has been credited with breathing new life into the ancient art of portraiture. Her highly stylized, idealized oil paintings, drawings, and watercolors are driven by the emotional, adoring eye of an unrequited lover.
When he opened his workshop in the late 1970s, Ron Arad helped to redefine contemporary design. His recycling of ancient car seats to make the Rover chair, and his beds made out of scaffolding captured the creative mood of the moment, and caught the attention of a generation which had taken no previous interest in furniture design.
This comprehensive one-volume history of Pakistan covers contemporary crises in the perspective of the subcontinent's ancient and medieval history to explain how Muslim nationalism emerged and how the community interacted with the other communities in the region. The author breaches the confines of political history to depict the intellectual, economic, diplomatic, and cultural history of Pakistan.
Exploring many aspects of Felix Mendelssohn's multi-faceted career as musician and how it intersects with his work as composer, contributors discuss practical issues of music making such as performance space, instruments, tempo markings, dynamics, phrasings, articulations, fingerings, and instrument techniques. They present the conceptual and ideological underpinnings of Mendelssohn's approach to performance, interpretation, and composing through the contextualization of specific performance events and through the theoretic actualization of performances of specific works. Contributors rely on manuscripts, marked or edited scores, and performance parts to convey a deeper understanding of musical expression in 19th-century Germany. This study of Mendelssohn's work as conductor, pianist, organist, violist, accompanist, music director, and editor of old and new music offers valuable perspectives on 19th-century performance practice issues.
