Detroit Wayne State University Press 2003 First Edition. Hardback. Dust Jacket. Hardcover First Edition. Hardback. Dust Jacket. 4to. Original publishers black cloth, lettered gilt at the spine. Copiously illustrated in colour and black and white throughout. In a century that was dominated by science and technology, the wide-ranging artwork of Michael Ayrton (1921-75) is truly a tribute to the enduring power of Greek myth. Theorists often discuss the link between myth and creativity, but rarely does one see this connection manifested so provocatively over the course of an artist's career. Fittingly, this British sculptor, painter, author, filmmaker, and maze designer was inspired by the story of the archetypal craftsman Daedalus-father of Icarus and maker of the labyrinth that imprisoned the Minotaur-and produced over 800 works that in turn enhance the myth's significance. This book is heavy, and delivery costs may be a consideration especially outside Britain. ISBN: 0814330029 Pages: 402 Some lightly penciled easily erasable notes on a few pages, otherwise very good in very good indeed dust jacket.

Theorists often discuss the link between myth and creativity, but rarely does one see this connection manifested so provocatively over the course of an artist's career.

Highlighting the interaction between myth and artist, word and image, Jacob Nyenhuis here presents a catalogue of these works, one that will enlighten Ayrton's British following while introducing him to an American audience.A nonconformist who challenged Picasso's reign over the art world, Ayrton found in Daedalus a richly complex story of captivity and escape, ingenuity and creativity, flight and fall, success and failure. Ayrton's own journey into the labyrinth set him on a torturous path through life and into the psyche: he came to identify himself not only with the craftsman but also with the Minotaur, representative of the bestial nature hidden within all of us. He ...
