Description

Ruth Asawa: All Is Possible is a comprehensive catalogue celebrating the artist's unique vision and intimate subject matter. Known for her intricate and distinct artistic language, Asawa produced numerous sculptures, drawings, and prints that are built on simple, repeated gestures that accumulate into complex compositions. The book features rarely seen work alongside iconic looped-wire sculptures, as well as personal motifs such as ceramic casts of family members and friends, and drawings of loved ones. This is the most expansive look at Asawa's oeuvre to date, offering new insight from writers and curators with a selection of sixty-four works from her spectacular body of work. With an introduction by Helen Molesworth and contributions from Makeda Best, Taylor Davis, Ruth Erickson, Briony Fer, Jennifer L. Roberts, and John Yau, this catalogue records the breathtaking exhibition that shares its name, providing a unique perspective on Asawa's life and art.
