Peggy Guggenheim and Frederick Kiesler: The Story of Art of This Century

[Peggy Guggenheim]

A study of the collaboration between Peggy Guggenheim and Frederick Kiesler in the creation of the Art of This Century gallery. The catalogue was published on the occasion of the exhibition Peggy and Kiesler: The Collector and the Visionary at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice, in 2003. The essays and illustrations explore the creation and impact of Guggenheim's ground-breaking New York gallery and the innovative, often surreal, hanging schemes by the avant-garde architect Frederick Kiesler.
