    Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. The exhibition Atelier EB: Passer-by has an essential element of the fashion industry on the subject: the world of mannequins and displays. Since the surrealists took up the mannequin in the early 20th century, this object has established itself in the visual arts as a recurring motif. Lipscombe and McKenzie bring the individual disciplines of window display design to light, present radical thinkers and doers who have broken down the boundaries between art and window display design, and create a convincing narrative that brings ethnography, sculpture, puppets and world exhibitions together with our digital future. The catalog is a meticulously elaborated study of the hierarchies that traditionally separate art and design, and thereby questions the boundary between commercial staging and non-commercial exhibitions. ***** Atelier EB: Passer-by examines an essential facet of the fashion industry: the world of mannequins and retail display. Since the Surrealists took them up in the early twentieth century, mannequin have been an enduring motif within fine art. Lipscombe and McKenzie un-pack the disciplines of window dressing, look to radical thinkers and makers who dissolved the dividing line between fine art and commercial display, and piece together a compelling narrative that encompasses ethnography, statuary, dolls, the world fairs and our digital future. This catalog, like the traveling exhibition, is a meticulous and idiosyncratic study of the hierarchies which have historically separated the spheres of art and design, All books are sent signed and tracked.
