Strand Notes

Acclaimed artist Milton Glaser draws upon an amazing vocabulary of images and techniques to create his most personal book to date. In a way, he has not only been drawing all his life; he has been thinking about art and design on that journey. Based on his view that all art has its origin in the impulse to create, Glaser has designed a book that powerfully delineates this position. Here the drawings depicted are meant to be experiencedsequentially, while representing a sweeping range of subject matter - taken from the full range of a reflective master's career. Here, drawing represents the impulse to create a better way to perceive the world. 210 color illus. 224p.
