Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This latest volume in the MoMA One on One series focuses on Clara Porset's Butaque chair (c. 1957), the only object designed by a Latin American currently on view at the Museum. Clara Porset is one of the most important Latin American designers of the twentieth century. Though born in Matanzas, Cuba, Porset spent most of her life in Mexico, and throughout her career as a designer, writer, and teacher, she challenged social conventions during a time that offered few opportunities for the professional development of women. Her designs bridge the functional rationalism of modernism with traditional craft techniques and traditional materials, resulting in a novel type of production. Her Butaque Chair, recently acquired by The Museum of Modern Art in 2021, is the only object designed by a Latin American currently on view at MoMA. In this latest volume of the MoMA One on One series, scholar and curator Ana Elena Mallet explores Proset's idea that the Butaque is a 'living design' and broadens our understanding of Latin American design.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Cuban-born and Mexico-based Clara Porset is renowned for her md-century modern furniture and interior design and for her collaborations with architects, such as Luis Barragán and Mario Pani. She was also an accomplished critic and writer. Living Design collects Porset's essays, reviews, and lectures to highlight her role as an influential thinker, educator, and practitioner. This volume insightfully contextualizes the politics that shaped Porset's design principles, charts the influence of the Bauhaus and Black Mountain College on her work, and reveals the period's fusion of local adaptations and modernist principles that made Mexico a major centre of modernist design.At a time when many practitioners believed that design could only be modernized by replacing hand craftsmanship with mechanization, Porset valued both approaches for their distinctive qualities, and urged others to do the same. Through her writings, she encouraged efforts to catalyze local design communities during a period of rapid technological and social change. With essays by historian Randal Sheppard and design curator and scholar Ana Elena Mallet, an introduction by volume editors Zoë Ryan and Valentina Sarmiento Cruz, and explanatory notes on the people and publishing forums in Porset's circle, Living Design makes available works never before published in English, and with only limited circulation in the Spanish language, in order to recover an important and neglected voice in global modernism.…
