Like his large-scale works, the <em>Bosom Sculptures<\/em> as he called them, were inspired by Lassaw&rsquo;s extensive readings on topics as varied as Zen Buddhism, cosmology, and quantum physics. Between 1951 and the late 1990s, Lassaw produced an extraordinary array of jewellery in forms quite unlike any other artist at the time. Employing unique combinations of metals as well as the many novel techniques, colours, and forms he had developed for his large sculptures, Lassaw&rsquo;s welded and braised necklaces, though simple in design, remind us of everything from sea anemones to nebulae with their elaborate biomorphic tendrils and interconnected clusters.<\/p>\n<p>Published to coincide with an exhibition at Figge Art Museum in Davenport, Iowa, <strong><em>Quanta of Space: The Bosom Sculpture of Ibram Lassaw<\/em><\/strong> features 37 unique pendants and necklaces alongside nine full-size sculptures that Lassaw created between 1938 and 1996. Supplementing essays, offering insight into his life and times and the dynamic forces which inspired him, are contributed by Nancy G. Heller, professor emerita at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia; Denise Lassaw, the artist&rsquo;s daughter, collaborator, and archivist; and Marin R. Sullivan, scholar of art history, curator, and writer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quanta of Space: The Bosom Sculpture of Ibram Lassaw features 37 unique pendants and necklaces alongside nine full-size sculptures that Ibram Lassaw created between 1938 and 1996.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":47028,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[5568],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-42144","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-art","7":"author-edited-by-andrew-wallace","8":"publisher-scheidegger-und-spiess-ag-verlag","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Quanta of Space - ACC Art Books UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Title: Quanta of Space, Pages: 116 Pages, Publish Date: 5th Sep 2023, Author: Edited by Andrew Wallace, ISBN: 9783858818904.
