Aleksandra Kasuba (häftad, eng)

A compelling and comprehensive overview of the life and work of a visionary artist. Aleksandra Kasuba fled Lithuania in the wake of the Second World War, eventually emigrating to the United States where she settled in New York, and then New Mexico. Shelter for the Senses, the first major survey published in English, spans six decades of work, exploring Kasuba’s artistic journey, from her early paintings and mosaics to her later sculptures and architectural designs.

Her love of the natural world, in particular the shapes and forms of nature, such as shells, rocks, vegetation and marine life, was a constant catalyst for her creative practice. Kasuba was driven by a desire to not only forge a deeper connection between humanity and nature, but also to imagine alternative ways of living.

She felt that the exchange of ideas could push the boundaries of creativity and innovation. Kasuba explored this idea through collaborating with a pioneering collective (Experiments in Art and Technology, or E.A.T), made up of artists, engineers, and scientists, throughout the 1960s.

Featuring insightful contributions from experts in various fields, as well as extracts from interviews with the artist, and reproductions of her own essays, many of which have never before been published, Shelter for the Senses will help to cement the reputation of this extraordinary artist, and communicate her prescient art to the world.
