"Return to Function surveys contemporary artists who make functional objects that verge on 'the designed'--from vehicles to clothes to mobile studio units--which happily confirm that the once-firm line between fine art and the applied arts is indeed dissolving. These artists--Jules De Balincourt, Claire Fontaine, Franncois Curlet, Fabrice Hyber, J. Morgan Puett, Michael Rakowitz, Joe Scanlan, Franck Scurti, Ricardo Miranda Z iga and others--make objects that are simultaneously critical and practical. By choosing to create objects that meet utilitarian criteria, they show that artworks can be a part of the larger social, political and economic fabric. This volume features an in-depth discussion of seminal artists working in this vein, including Lucy Orta, Andrea Zittel and Jorge Pardo." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the principles and mechanics of plant growth, examining positional changes in branching and leaf arrangements. The author challenges long-held theories based on abstract ideals, proposing instead that the growth process is driven by factors such as organ expansion… rates, weight distribution, and external forces. The work presents a detailed analysis of plant development, offering a new perspective on the underlying causes of plant form and structure. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
