A fascinating illustrated look at Anni Albers's work, with an emphasis on the architectural dimensions of her works. Anni Albers (1899-1994) has long been highly regarded as a pioneer in the fields of textile, design and visual arts; She was also an inspiring and eloquent writer, and her books “On Design” and “On Textile” are considered among the most important references in the history of design. Anni Albers: Constructing Textiles explores ideas of materiality, construction, and architecture throughout her body of work, establishing her legacy as a thinker, theorist, and innovator. The book's essays include primary writings by Albers herself on the making of textiles and their meanings, as well as new essays by Glenn Adamson on her relationship with architecture, Caris Medina on her weaving materials and techniques, Amy Jane Porter on her writings, and Jeffrey Saltnick on East Asian influences in Albers's work and thought. The book includes hundreds of images reproduced with extreme precision, including works held in private collections that have not been published before. This book is an essential reference in the literature of Modernism, and cements Albers's position as a leading figure in twentieth-century art.
