Книга: Chiparus Master Of Art Deco

Over 23 years ago the first publication of Chiparus Master of Art Deco brought this artist into the public eye. His name, lost in records and catalogues, was rejuvenated by Alberto Shayos rediscovery of his works, effectively bringing artist and oeuvre back to life.
This book dwells on the sources and inspiration of the Art Deco movement, with particular emphasis on sculptures created by Demetre Chiparus. However, Chiparus considered himself a painter above a sculptor. In this latest version of the book, many unpublished pictures come to light as well as newly discovered oils and sanguines, confirming his aptitude in both fields.
Contents The Early Years, Development of the Art Deco Style, The New Woman, Chiparus and the Art Deco Aesthetic, Chryselephantine Sculpture, Notes, Plates, Paintings by Chiparus, Care of Chryselephantine Sculpture, Fakes and Reproductions, Bibliography.
