In locating the artist's contribution to postwar art and her important place in the global conversations around modernity, Mica Amor explores her intermedial practice as a model of cultural complexity at the \"edge of modernity.\" In situating Gego's work alongside other local archives and against her European education and global reception, Amor offers a monographic model that complicates traditional approaches to history. She investigates the full range of Gego's work, including her furniture workshop, her teaching at schools of architecture and design, her seminal \u003ci\u003ereticul疵eas, \u003c\/i\u003e and her lesser-known prints. Through rigorous archival research, formal analysis, theoretical relevance, and deep exploration of historical context, this essential book unpacks Gego's radical recasting of the modern sculptural project through her engagement with architecture, craft, and design pedagogy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Monica Amor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300260687\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300260687\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/11\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 8.80w x 0.90d","brand":"Monica Amor","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44072608891135,"sku":"9780300260687","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_75025c76-7d12-417a-9690-1d112b324dac.jpg?v=1685442992","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gego-monica-amor-9780300260687","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
