BUY FOR LESS AT MOCA, 13 July 2010
By Mallory M "Cali love" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Skin + Bones: Parallel Practices in Fashion and Architecture (Hardcover)
FYI...you can still purchase this book online (or in person) at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angelos brand new for 85.00. Unfortunately there's a 20$ shipping fee plus tax brought the total to 113.something. But that still beats 194 by 80$. I know its still not that cheap but it is better. Just a heads up for all the hungry art lovers out there.
P.S when you find a book on here you must have but don't like the inflated price, try finding out who the publisher is and check their site, sometimes the book is still available for the original price.
I apologize for not actually reviewing the book, I will when I get it, I just didn't want anyone to pay more than they had to.

Skin + Bones, 4 April 2009

This review is from: Skin + Bones: Parallel Practices in Fashion and Architecture (Hardcover)
What an incredible catalogue of highly inventive, genius artists' work! A must-have for anyone interested in truly avant garde design- especially clothing. I even was turned on to a designer I wasn't familiar with and now we're corresponding. Just a beautiful, highest quality publication- a real collector's item. I promise, whether or not you were lucky enough to see the London exhibit, you'll be thrilled and inspired by the catalogue.

By Sindil Marta - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Skin + Bones: Parallel Practices in Fashion and Architecture (Hardcover)
If you are interested in alternative views on architecture, especially on the subject of skin in architeture, skin+bones is a great exemple. The exposition as well as the book cover a long period in the history of modern fashion and architecture in order to portrait all those who change the way we conceive both architecture and clothing.
Amazon is a great way to purchase books which are rare in you region and sometimes even less expensive. skin+bones arrived on time and in great condition, new as descibed.
