A visual essay of the extraordinary lace-carved life size marble sculptures of Elizabeth Turk, shown together for the first time. All color illustrations, and an introductory essay by a guest author, noted sculpture expert, allow for a good understanding of Elizabeth's monumental, complex series, The Collars.  A wonderful juxtaposition of the delicate monumentality of the work with the notion of women's work through the ages.

<p>The first comprehensive survey in over thirty years of American Gothic Revival furniture, decorative arts in all media (porcelain, glass, silver, lighting), paintings, works on paper, architectural renderings, and architectural elements. Through examples produced in America, or specifically for an American market, In Pointed Style explores how Americans of culture and taste embraced a new architectural style that was already sweeping through England. Finding its expression in both public buildings and private homes, the decorative vocabulary of the Gothic Revival was applied to furnishings and vernacular objects. The fashion for Gothic vanished with the Civil War, and today, this style is largely overlooked and poorly understood. In Pointed Style sheds new light on this brief era.</p>

A catalogue of sculptures from the artist's "Ribbons & Pinwheels" series, which was debuted at Hirschl & Adler Modern in the fall of 2008. Beautiful glossy images of the marble sculptures and an insightful essay by the artist, provide an in-depth understanding of Turk's intellectual and artistic inspirations.

Hirschl & Adler Modern

<p>Very Rich &amp; Handsome, American Neo-Classical Decorative Arts, is a multi-media survey exhibition (and accompanying book) of furniture, metalwork, silver, lighting, ceramics, and glass made in America or specifically for an American clientele between 1810 and the early 1840s. Illustrating the strength and breadth of American artistry and workmanship, this exhibition visually reminds us of the indigenously American Neo-Classicism that Hirschl &amp; Adler Galleries has previously explored through comprehensive exhibitions and publications over the last 24 years. Very Rich &amp; Handsome, the sixth exhibition in our series, has been curated by father-daughter team Stuart P. Feld and Elizabeth Feld.</p>
