FAYE TOOGOOD: ASSEMBLAGE 6, UNLEARNING - Contemporary Art Book for Collectors & Design Enthusiasts | Perfect for Home Decor, Office Display & Creative Inspiration

Product Description

Faye Toogood’s newest Assemblage started with almost 300 maquettes: chairs, lamps, stools, or daybeds made of wire, cardboard, tape, and canvas, or the everyday materials she keeps in her studio.

But having lined up these rather crude, almost childlike maquettes, the collection, in essence, was decided.

Seventeen were chosen to be scaled up to life-size works.

This book provides an immersive journey through the original maquettes and their occasional passage into the ‘real’ world of furniture/sculpture, playing with the sense of dissimulation evident in the final artworks, or the fact that some objects are not always what they seem at first glance.

The Man Booker–nominated author Sophie Mackintosh opens with this idea in her short story, while the book closes on an essay by the independent writer and curator Glenn Adamson, who ultimately provides context for the collection and process as a whole.
