More about the book
Known for her ceramics, visual artist Vera Székely reached her artistic fulfillment in textiles with her ephemeral installations of bent felt, her stretched canvas structures and 'braced sails' exhibited throughout the world After training as a graphic designer in Hungary, the plastic artist Vera Székely (1919-1994), a member of the Székely-Borderie ceramicist collective, tackled work in clay, metal, wood and glass to reach her artistic fulfillment in textiles.
