Magic of MC Escher
- Used Book in Good Condition
As beautiful and complex as an Escher work itselfâ€•a classic study of a great artist and his works on paper
M.C. Escher (1898-1972) is renowned for his ability to render the visions of his mindâ€™s eye. The visions themselves were remarkable: for Escher, the skin of the visible world was nothing more than a piece of cloth that could be cut, folded, shaped, and rearranged in marvelous ways. A superb draftsman, he portrayed these other-worldly transformations of space within the familiar borders of a sheet of paper. The resulting images have become the favorite artworks of viewers around the world.

The Magic of M.C. Escher does justice to this original artistâ€™s inventions. Escherâ€™s worksâ€•woodcuts, lithographs, and drawings, accompanied by quotes from the authorâ€•are brilliantly arranged to form a cinematic look at his achievements. Here is the magical world of the artistâ€™s mind, an uncharted realm full of exotic conceptions and inventions.
