By inviting us to view sculpture as structure and structure as sculpture the book offers a 'defamiliarized' sight of the world. The result is educational, a deeper understanding of morphology, but also a fresh comprehension of the poetics of structure - making and of structural intelligence.

Works of art in their own right, frames play an essential and often overlooked role in complementing the artworks they support. The craft and history of European frames is a fascinating subject and this volume provides a rich and informative guide to the frame maker's art from the thirteenth to the nineteenth century. This handy reference tool features over two hundred entries--arranged alphabetically from abacus to whiting--that concisely explain the techniques, materials, and styles involved in the making of frames. The introduction gives an overview of the history of frame styles and explains how frames are chosen by artists and museums for specific artworks. Lavishly illustrated with objects from the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum, this handbook will be invaluable not only to professionals and collectors but also to all those wishing to increase their understanding and enjoyment of frames.

De tout temps, l’homme a peint et dessiné, depuis la plus haute Antiquité jusqu’à nos jours, des parois des grottes aux murs « tagués » de nos villes, des villas romaines aux décors 1900, des sculptures médiévales flamandes aux riches polychromies jusqu’aux artefacts les plus abstraits de l’art d’aujourd’hui, en passant par les Primitifs italiens… Ce livre embrasse un domaine dont l’amplitude étonne, mais dont la cohérence visuelle s’impose avec évidence. Synthétisant les cultures historique, scientifique et technique en une approche globale, les quelque 1 850 termes ou expressions permettent d’aborder les différents aspects de l’œuvre avec des définitions simples et courtes, mais enrichies d’un appareil de notes et de références bibliographiques. L’iconographie n’est pas ici une simple illustration des termes : les 2 400 schémas et images ont été réalisés ou sélectionnés pour permettre de découvrir des œuvres comme on ne les voit jamais en temps normal.
