Description
Toshiko Takaezu Worlds Within provides a comprehensive look at the multifaceted American artist Toshiko Takaezu. Her work in ceramics, painting, sculpture, weaving, and installation innovatively drew from the natural world, combining expressionist energies with influences from East Asia. This retrospective assessment of Takaezu's art and life offers a compelling account of her diverse oeuvre, spanning six decades, and her hybrid identity as an Asian American woman, artist, and teacher. The book features essays exploring Takaezu's biography, cultural exchange in her art, the relationship between her abstract work and that of her contemporaries, and more. Beautifully illustrated with nearly 300 images of artworks and archival photographs, including an updated chronology, exhibition history, and recollections from the artist's former apprentices, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of Takaezu's remarkable career.
