From Pucci's psychedelic patterns to Iuter's skate-inspired prints: how Italian designers have led innovations in textiles throughout the 20th centuryThe dynamic geometrical patterns of Emilio Pucci; the dazzling trompe-l'oeil effects of Roberta di Camerino; the pop sensibilities of Gianni Versace and Franco Moschino; the bold street-style prints of Iuter and Sunnei--these and countless other innovations have made Italian design a leading force in the history of 20th-century textiles.This volume documents the history of Italian textiles from the beginning of the 20th century through to the present day, exploring their evolution in relation to the dominant styles of various periods.

Numerous Italian artists, fashion designers, product designers and companies have pioneered and popularized a vast range of manufacturing processes that incorporate local fabrics and innovative techniques.Featuring sumptuous illustrations of finished fabrics, preparatory drawings and photographs, Italian Textiles compiles the country's most notable design coups. Among the thematic sections in the book are those dedicated to scarfs, skirts, shirts, ties, wallpapers, tablecloths and various other fabricated objects.Designers include: Fede Cheti, Enrico Coveri, Roberta di Camerino, Dolce & Gabbana, Salvatore Ferragamo, Lucio Fontana, Piero Fornasetti, Mariano Fortuny, Gucci, Iuter, Franco Moschino, Bruno Munari, Gio Ponti, Prada, Emilio Pucci, Ken Scott, Ettore Sottsass, Sunnei, Valentino and Versace.

A career survey of acclaimed installations from the master orchestrator of sensory experienceIcelandic Danish artist Olafur Eliasson (born 1967) is guided by a keen interest in perception, movement and lived experience, as well as those of the communities in which he works. Best known for his large-scale installation, Weather Project, which occupied the Tate Modern's Turbine Hall in 2003, Eliasson often makes use of elementary materials such as light, water and temperature-controlled mist to create an immersive or spiritual experience for his viewers. His practice is not limited to the confines of the museums and galleries where he shows, but also involves local communities through architectural projects, interventions in public spaces and artistic, social and environmental education programs. This volume presents an overview of Eliasson's 30-year career, including a selection of site-specific works, and features a collection of texts chosen by the artist that have inspired his practice.
