Description: Mantova: Maurizio Corraini, 2010. 24cm., pbk., 139pp. illus., most in color. Includes booklet, loose as issued. Exhibition held at Art Basel. Summary: This book is dedicated to the project “A work of Persol”. This involved 17 internationally famous young artists, showing them as they created their 17 works of art especially for Persol. In the presence of the artists, the results were exhibited at ArtBasel 2010. The 18th and final artist is Persol, creator of works of art and manual skill through its eyewear. From conception to the finished work, the book records each moment of the creative process through interviews and photos imaginatively brought together by the drawings of Harriet Russell which illustrate the link between the Persol philosophy and artistic creation. The wealth of text and pictures becomes a kind of visual story of the entire project, highlighting the close association between both the “work” of art and the production process – invested with equal care into the making of each and every pair of Persol glasses.
