| book description |

An authoritative study of Gego, whose distinctive modernist practice sits at the intersection of architecture, design, and the visual arts This important book is the first extended studyÂ of the life and work of German-born Venezuelan artist Gertrude Goldschmidt (1912â€“94), known as Gego. In locating the artistâ€™s contribution to postwar art and her important place in the global conversations around modernity, MÃ³nica Amor explores her intermedial practice as a model of cultural complexity at the â€œedge of modernity.â€ In situating Gegoâ€™s work alongside other local archives and against her European education and global reception, Amor offers a monographic model that complicates traditional approaches to history. She investigates the full range of Gegoâ€™s work, including her furniture workshop, her teaching at schools of architecture and design, her seminal reticulÃ¡reas, and her lesser-known prints. Through rigorous archival research, formal analysis, theoretical relevance, and deep exploration of historical context, this essential book unpacks Gegoâ€™s radical recasting of the modern sculptural project through her engagement with architecture, craft, and design pedagogy.
