Om denne bog
Ceramist Beatrice Wood tells us the story of her unorthodox life and her influence on 20th-century art in this illustrated autobiography.

Rebellious, radical, and romantic, ceramist Beatrice Wood (1893–1998) defied propriety to become a true national, and international, treasure. Here, in her own charming, spirited, and readable style, Beatrice Wood tells us the story of her unorthodox life and her influence on 20th-century art.

This absorbing autobiography includes vintage documents and her own personal photos and sketches of her many famous friends and acquaintances in the art world. She became romantically involved with the Dadaist Marcel Duchamp, and offers rare glimpses into the lives of her circle, including key cultural figures like Constantin Brancusi, Isadora Duncan, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Anais Nin, and Krishnamurti.

At age forty Wood studied ceramics and went on to become one of the major ceramists of the 20th century, working until her death at age 105. This captivating chance to enjoy Wood''s rare charisma and spirit provides a better understanding of American art and the people who have shaped it.
