Michele Oka Doner: Natural Seduction Book

This sumptuously illustrated and visually powerful book surveys the remarkable career to date of Michele Oka Doner, internationally acclaimed artist and designer. Her prolific production spans four decades, encompassing sculpture, furniture, jewelry, public art and functional objects, from fireplace tools to teething rings. Oka Doner is perhaps best known for her numerous public art commissions, including New York?s Herald Square Subway Station?s "Radiant Site" and the Miami-Dade International Airport. Represented by Marlborough Gallery in New York, Michele?s work is fueled by a lifelong study and appreciation of the natural world. Aptly called "nature?s scribe," she translates organic forms into objects of natural seduction. Oka Doner?s work is one seamless gesture, infusing our experience with beauty and wonder. Includes insightful essays by Suzanne Ramljak, renowned art historian and editor, Arthur Danto, Prof. Emeritus, Columbia University, and others. The book is designed by the classic modernist, Massimo Vignelli.Read More
