Living with Art

By Karen Wheeler

The barriers between fine and applied art are continually being blurred by the contemporary interiors of today. Living With Art aims to inspire and emulate the individual approach -- presenting contemporary art for the home in all its various guises -- from advertising billboard posters to mounted x-ray light boxes displaying family snaps in the living room of a Victorian home. Every object in the home has become the subject of artistic approval and this book provides inspiration for anyone with a blank wall, floor or ceiling at his or her disposal.Topics include: -- When is it Art?-- Walls -- hang it?-- Floors -- sleep on it?-- Collecting art?-- Art as furniture?
