Heart of Hearts by Miyoko Ito Paperback Book

Description: Heart of Hearts by Miyoko Ito The result of several years of research, Miyoko Ito: Heart of Hearts is the first book project dedicated to the life and work of Japanese-American artist Miyoko Ito (1918–1983). While Itos paintings have recently been the subject of critically acclaimed exhibitions, her elegant and mysterious artwork was scarcely known beyond Chicago, where she lived and was celebrated during her lifetime.Assembled by Pre-Echo Press and Jordan Stein – organizer of Itos first two solo institutional exhibitions in nearly 40 years – Heart of Hearts features well over 100 full-color plates gathered from the artists mature period, rare and out of print archival materials, a 1978 interview with the artist, and a 5000-word biographical essay by Jordan Stein that contextualizes Itos practice and aims to afford the artist her proper place within a history of postwar American art. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Review An experience of flicking, thinking and moving through, Heart of Hearts gets right to the core of the artist, and maybe even further.--Kitty Grady "The World of Interiors"Miyoko Itos intriguing merger of internal and external space gets proper recognition and a fresh look in this visual feast.--Beth Williamson "The Art Newspaper"Neither a monograph nor a catalogue raisonné - the editors note, for example, that they were only allowed to photograph nine of the 18 works contained in one private collection - Heart of Hearts is a true testament to its publishers. It might seem early to call it, but I doubt there will be a better art book released in 2024.--Vanesa Peterson "Frieze"More than a refoundation of a critically important American artist, this book is a labor of love from Stein and the painter Matt Connors, whos published it through his own imprint.--Jason Farago "The New York Times: Arts" Details ISBN Author Miyoko Ito Pages 460 ISBN-13 9798889929499 Format Paperback Country of Publication United States Audience General Edited by Jordan Stein Year 2023 Publication Date 2023-12-01 US Release Date 2023-12-01 UK Release Date 2023-12-01 Publisher Pre-Echo Imprint Pre-Echo We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
