Synopsis

LULU is a sumptuous first monograph on artist Lulu de Kwiatkowski's colorful, dreamlike, and autobiographical handmade collages. Lulu is an acclaimed designer that is well known for her own textile line LULU DK. What is less known however, is that Lulu is also a prolific fine artist with an extensive body of work that has never before been published. Lulu's artwork draws inspiration from her unique, albeit rarefied and surreal, growing up experiences, as well as from her travels all over the world. Lulu's original multi-media collages combine painting, drawing, photography, and writing.

About this title

Synopsis:

"Lulu" is a sumptuous and colorful first monograph on artist and accomplished designer Lulu de Kwiatkowski's strikingly original handmade collages. Vivid and dreamlike, and sometimes autobiographical, Lulu's artwork draws heavily from her own 1970's childhood experiences, and from her extensive travels and time abroad to exotic locales such as India, Moroccco, Italy and Peru. Lulu's collages combine painting, drawing, photographs and writing, into bold, rich and layered compositions of both natural and geometric forms. Whimsical, yet complex, Lulu's work conveys a distinctly feminine and decorative sensibility that resonates as both contemporary and timeless. This large format book is beautifully designed and printed to showcase the colorful and graphic quality of Lulu's collages. Never before published, Lulu's collages will introduce her artwork to a broad audience as well as critical and popular acclaim.
