Simon Doonan ist der Creative Ambassador für Barneys New York, gefeiert für seinen unverwechselbaren Stil und sein scharfes Auge für visuelle Kunst. Seine Schriften tauchen tief in die faszinierenden Welten der Mode, des Designs und der Kultur ein, oft mit Witz und einem provokanten Geist versehen. Doonan untersucht, wie sich persönlicher Ausdruck und Kreativität mit breiteren gesellschaftlichen Erzählungen überschneiden, und bietet den Lesern Einblicke in Ästhetik und deren Wirkung. Seine Arbeit ist eine lebendige Feier der Exzentrizität und Individualität.
Revolutionary and renegade, Keith Haring was an artist for the people, creating an instantly recognisable repertoire of symbols - barking dogs, space-ships, crawling babies, clambering faceless people - which became synonymous with the volatile culture of 1980s. Like a careening, preening pinball, Keith Haring playfully slammed into all aspects of this decade - hip-hop, new-wave, graffiti, funk, art, style, gay culture - and brought them together.--Amazon.com
My Prescription for Anti-Depressive Living offers an intimate glimpse into the life of a remarkably creative individual who defied early criticism from a pottery professor. Rather than abandon his passion, Adler revolutionized pottery, elevating it from a mundane craft to a symbol of modern luxury, ultimately becoming America's first celebrity potter. Interior designer Bill Sofield praises Adler's influence, likening it to Noel Coward's impact on cocktail parties. The book presents Adler's playful design "manifesto," with each chapter exploring a different tenet, showcasing his signature interiors and products, culminating in his personal creative journey. A visual delight, it features a rich array of images of both Adler's designs and those that inspire him. Central to the narrative are ten of Adler's iconic interiors, including the modernist beach house of photographer Andrea Stern and the transformed Parker Palm Springs resort. The book also highlights the homes shared by Adler, his partner Simon Doonan, and their dog, Liberace, across various locations. This literary debut is a vibrant blend of artist portrait and design inspiration, offering readers a spirited and motivating experience.
