The first publication of its kind, connecting a constellation of artists working at the forefront of abstraction in the early 20th century

Orphism emerged among a cosmopolitan group of artists active in Paris in the early 1910s, as the innovations of modern life radically altered conceptions of time and space. Engaged with ideas of simultaneity in kaleidoscopic compositions, these artists investigated the transformative possibilities of color, form and motion. Often featuring disks of brilliant color, their work evoked multisensory experiences. When pushed to its limits, Orphism signaled total abstraction. The poet Guillaume Apollinaire, a contemporary, coined the term "Orphism" to describe this move away from Cubism, toward a physically and spiritually transcendent art. His concept referred back to the Greek mythological poet and lyre player Orpheus, whose music thwarted death.
The first in-depth examination of the Orphist avant-garde, this revelatory exhibition catalog contextualizes Orphism, tracing its roots, exploring its cross-disciplinary reach and considering its transnational reverberations across 16 illustrated texts by a multigenerational group of authors from different fields. Incisive essays offer new perspectives, delineating Orphism's connection to music, dance and poetry, and investigating the historical and cultural circumstances that shaped its ethos. More than 90 artworks in multiple mediums are punctuated by micro-narratives that view select artists through the Orphist lens, presenting original scholarship on well-known figures such as Robert Delaunay, Sonia Delaunay, Frantisek Kupka and Francis Picabia while also illuminating lesser-known ones such as Mainie Jellett, Morgan Russell and Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso.

Nice Stand
This is very sturdy and was easy to assemble. I use it on my bathroom countertop. The top basket holds my hair dryer, getting the cord up off the counter while still plugged in. Just what I wanted.

Handy for storing fresh produce
The stacking baskets are as advertised. Easy to assemble without instructions. A little wobbly as expected but is sturdy enough; even better once propped in a corner. As with most things, it can last for quite a while if handled with care. Measurements are accurate. At 38" tall, I knew that the set of 4 baskets would have towered 2" above my countertop (36"). Now, I think that the set of 3 would have worked just fine at about 29" tall. I like that this can fit in such a tiny 12" floor space and I am able to reclaim some much needed counter space. Talk about uncluttered! Overall this was a good buy but I do think that it is a bit overpriced.

Very firm to be placed on counter top. Baskets have enough space to store onions, fruits etc. Fair price as well.

Better Have Counter Space
Purchased with the idea to reduce counter clutter and have central location of fruits and vegetables. The idea behind the stacking basket bins is fine, but with limited counter space, it just seems to add to the clutter. I am also only able to use the bottom plate and one basket as stacking height would extend high enough to block cabinet doors. Good idea, but not for those with limited counter space and or lower cabinet clearance. Check measurements and counter space.
