Table of ContentsReviewsI have consistently found Albers's writings, in both On Weaving and the already re-released Selected Writings on Design (Wesleyan University Press, 2001), to be eye-opening on a range of topics. Materiality, tactility, nonverbal language, the histories of both handcraft and factory production -- Albers provides clear and rigorous analysis of these and other issues throughout her books. --Becky Peterson, HYPERALLERGIC I have consistently found Albers's writings, in both On Weaving and the already re-released Selected Writings on Design (Wesleyan University Press, 2001), to be eye-opening on a range of topics.

They stand on their own as complete and thoughtful statements of her approach to life and to design. --Cecil Lubell, former Executive Editor of American Fabrics Magazine I have consistently found Albers's writings, in both On Weaving and the already re-released Selected Writings on Design (Wesleyan University Press, 2001), to be eye-opening on a range of topics.

She distinguishes 'useful' weaving (the worn, walked-on, and sat-upon) from the 'useless' (the pictorial), but in her hands both share the virtue of being unique as works of art. Masterful with the hand loom, Anni Albers exerts a similar mastery over the machine in so ordering her design that the machine also produces a work of art.""""--Paul Schweikher, former Head of the Department of Architecture, Carnegie Institute of Technology" Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
