| Description: | Select Guide Rating Featuring Ruth Asawa’s stunning looped-wire sculptures, this journal is a welcome reminder to find inspiration in the everyday object. The twentieth-century master Ruth Asawa is renowned for her hand-looped and tied-wire sculptures that explore the interplay of light and shadow. Asawa also produced an enormous body of works on paper, finding moments to weave her creative practice into the fabric of her daily life, depicting her California garden, her family, and her home. The delicate works featured in Asawa’s first Artist Journal beckon the inner artist to carve out time to look and create. A series of beautiful and unique, usable journals, these hardcover, blank books each focus on a single artist, and feature a detail of an artwork wrapped around the cover and endpapers that highlight details from the artist’s studies or other works on paper. We offer a variety of grid designs for the interior - lines, circles, traditional grids - that the artist or estate hand selects for their journal. The opening page includes a single quote about making from each artist. The Journal series celebrates the creativity of artists and their ability to inspire. Each edition includes a detail of an artwork on the cover and studies or drawings as endpapers. Produced in collaboration with the artists or artist’s estates, The Journal series is printed in limited editions. |
