Product Description

Synopsis
In a response to the sleek forms and perfect angles of late-1990s objects, many of today's artists are returning to handmade work such as hand lettering, hand drawing, and hand sewing. "By Hand" features an international collection of the most noteworthy artists and shows their work in detailed photography and insightful texts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, 7 Feb 2009
By J. A. Maxfield - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is lovely. Some great quality pictures show examples of a large range of textile artists work. Written text directly from the artist - very good reference for research! introductory text at the front of the book discusses the use fo textiles within art - I found this very informative and good opening to the book.
