Bertoia Av Beverly H. Twitchell

<p><strong>A celebration of the rich and varied work of Italian-born American artist, designer, and master of metal, Harry Bertoia</strong></p> <p>From chapel altarpieces and bronze fountains, to wire chairs and silver brooches, Harry Bertoia''s creative output was varied in the extreme. This new book explores his entire career: his move from Italy to Detroit at 15; his formative years at Cranbrook; his work with Charles Eames and Knoll; through to his fascinating sound sculptures. </p><p>In doing so, the book demonstrates how seemingly disparate works are in fact united in being reflections of nature, and places Bertoia''s art squarely at the heart of American modernism.</p>
