M.C. Escher: 29 Master Prints
OVERSIZE NE 670 .E75 A4 1983
Escher’s work is fascinating and intriguing. He says, “In my prints I try to show that we live in a beautiful and orderly world and not in a chaos without norms, as we sometimes seem to. My subjects are also often playful. I cannot help mocking all our unwavering certainties. It is, for example great fun deliberately to confuse two and three dimensions, the plane and space, or to poke fun at gravity. Are you sure that a floor cannot also be a ceiling? Are you absolutely certain that you go up when you walk up a staircase? Can you be definite that it is impossible to eat your cake and have it?” Take a look through this book and maybe you will see things just a little bit differently when you are done.
ENJOY!!
