Greenberg, Kerryn — Fahrelnissa Zeid
London, Tate Publishing, 2017. First Edition. Softcover. Size: 8vo 8" - 9" tall. From the personal library of the feminist art historian extraordinaire, Dr. Whitney Chadwick, a giant across many fields. Sterling condition softcover copy, with unfurled tips, tight binding, and clean internals, showing only very slight shelf- and edge-wear to the glossy pictorial wraps, in gate-fold. Fahrelnissa Zeid's work is told in great detail here by the editor, Kerryn Greenberg, and in contributions by her, Vassilis Oikonomopoulos, Sarah Wilson, Adila Laid-Hanierh and Necmi Sonmez. From the publisher's blurb, "Fahrelnissa Zeid (1901-1991) was one of the most influential Turkish artists, best known for her large-scale abstract paintings. Marrying influences from Islamic, Byzantine and Eastern art with the bold colour of the Fauvists, the geometrical dissonance of the Cubists and the precise lines of Mondrian, Zeid developed an abstract vocabulary that was a synthesis of East and West and was uniquely her own."Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . .
