"Appleton & Associates Architects features a selection of projects by the firm, including a working olive ranch in California, a grand estate in Los Angeles inspired by a Renaissance Tuscan-style villa, a quintessential 'Hollywood' house that includes a glamorous pool pavilion and of course a superb staircase to make the all-important entrance, and a writer's pavilion in Connecticut that would charm any writer."--BOOK JACKET.
Sculpture Undone, 1955-1972
"A sculptor who began working during the postwar period in a classical figurative style, Alina Szapocznikow radically reconceptualized sculpture as an imprint not only of memory but also of her own body. Though her career effectively spanned less than two decades (cut short by the artist's premature death in 1973 at age 47), Szapocznikow left behind a legacy of provocative objects that evoke Surrealism, Nouveau Râealisme, and Pop art.

Nosetalgia is the first and only book of its kind in the world. And it literally stinks! It has 14 nostalgic scratch-and-sniff spots to take you back.In the hyper-protective, safety-conscious world we live in, we can consider it a badge of honor that as kids we breathed in the deliciously noxious smells of damp mimeograph paper, model airplane glue, Wite-Out, rubber cement, Magic Markers, and Superelastic Bubble Plastic and lived to tell about it. Very few things transport you in time like your sense of smell. It is the oldest, most primal sense and the one most tied to memory. And while we can identify over 10,000 individual smells, it is still the most underappreciated of all our senses. T...
