Description

Anni Albers Selected Writings on Design brings together fifteen essays that showcase the influential textile designer's concept of design as the pursuit of wholeness. In this beautifully illustrated book, Albers explores the artistic and practical concerns of modern design, considering the ever-changing role of the designer. Albers's work is highly regarded in private collections and leading museums worldwide, including those at Harvard University, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in New York. This collection offers a unique insight into her approach to design, which balances form with practical needs and aesthetic considerations. Published by Wesleyan University Press, this book is a valuable addition to Albers's existing body of work, including On Weaving (1965) and On Designing (1961).
