{"product_id":"sculpture-woods-ted-lindberg-9780295988276","title":"Sculpture Woods: Studio Grounds of Ann Morris","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnn Morris has become a priestess of sorts, investing her mind and spirit into an ambitious oeuvre of figurative bronzes that speak with a singular and meditative voice. In a comprehensive and insightful essay, Ted Lindberg traces the arc of Morris's artistic development from her beginnings as a mother, philosophy student, and Pasadena printmaker, to her reclusion on the wind-swept bluffs of Lummi Island in north Puget Sound. There Morris has created an extraordinary bronze park that she calls \u003ci\u003eSculpture Woods\u003c\/i\u003e, a 15-acre sanctuary of stately forest and highbank waterfront that is home to her studio and to a winding path populated by 16 sculptural tableaus seen through a Jungian lens. Monumental figures emerge from the forest, as if stepping through a rift in time from the mists of classical and Celtic antiquities, to tell their archetypal tales.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a second essay, Jake Seniuk muses on how Morris moved from such overtly mythological themes to a kind of talismanic naturalism when she turned to an ongoing series of more intimately scaled bronzes that trace an ongoing \u003ci\u003eBone Journey. \u003c\/i\u003eUnfolding her own creation myth through her work, Morris remains true to the marriage of the Platonic and the aboriginal, where a clear-eyed awareness of mortality is liberating and transcendent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ted Lindberg,Jake Seniuk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0295988274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780295988276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Museum of Northwest Art\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.65h x 10.27w x 0.85d","brand":"Ted Lindberg","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48998553452799,"sku":"9780295988276","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sculpture-woods-ted-lindberg-9780295988276","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
