Re-Edition des Ensembles bestehend aus Schachfiguren und Tisch

Isamu Noguchi (1904 - 1988) entwickelte dieses Ensemble 1944 für die Ausstellung «Imagery of Chess» in der Julien Levy Gallery in New York. Julien Levy hatte die Ausstellung zusammen mit Marcel Duchamp und Max Ernst kuratiert.

Die Neuauflage ist in einer Kooperation von Ameico, IC Design und der Isamu Noguchi Foundation entstanden, während die Produktionsentwicklung und Herstellung von tät-tat übernommen wurde.

Noguchi verband seine künstlerische Leidenschaft mit einem tiefen Respekt für die Geschichte und Traditionen der östlichen, wie auch der westlichen Kulturen. Besonders angetan hatten es ihm historische indische und persische Schachformen. Verstärkt wurde dies wohl durch seine Liebesbeziehung mit Tara Pandit, der Nichte des indischen Premierministers Jawaharlal Nehru. Anstelle der üblichen weissen und schwarzen Figuren und Bretter des Westens, kopierte Noguchi indische schwarze Lackbretter mit kreisförmigen Einsätzen. Seine Figuren fertigte er in durchscheinendem Rot und Grün an, was an die Rubine und Smaragde erinnert, die die legendären Schachfiguren der frühen indischen Rajahs schmückten. Alle Figuren bis auf den Turm haben kopfartige Formen und gewölbte Stacheln.

Der Mangel an hochwertigen Materialien während des Krieges begrenzte und inspirierte Noguchi. Für diesen Entwurf entwickelte er ein einfaches System, bei dem dünne, konturierte Materialebenen zusammengeklebt wurden, die die Objekte in die finale Objektdimension transponierten. In seinen Skulpturen verfolgte er später diese Idee für längere Zeit weiter. Neu war für diese Zeit auch das Plexiglas, das als Material zur Herstellung durchsichtiger Flugzeugkanzeln und Geschütztürme entwickelt worden war (The imagery of Chess revisited, herausgegeben von Larry List).

tät-tat finalisierte die Umsetzung des faltbaren Brettes, der Figuren und den Innenausbau der Verpackung.

Wow.
Format: Kindle
Okay I’m usually not one for stand-alone’s I’m an avid series reader but my goodness am I so happy I read this! This story was brilliant & so absolutely mesmerizing. I loved reading about each character and their struggles as well as what helped them to move forward. The ending definitely brought tears to my eyes so hard. I truly wasn’t expecting some of what happened in this story. There is about to be a spoiler I am going to reveal so please stop reading if you don’t want the spoiler !!!! ⚠️ ⛔️ ‼️ I loved that the author didn’t do what most authors do with irredeemable male characters. I truly was hoping that Nate Jr. would be apart of the pack after the way he treated Astrea bc he truly didn’t deserve it. Though I must say you did a wonderful job or redeeming him as a person. I cried my eyes out when he walked into the story. I was truly terrified he was going to be a bad guy to the end. However you truly did him such a justice by having him realize his faults & having him redeem himself in the most wonderful way. I’m so sad that he didn’t get to hear how much his brother loved him & forgave him before dying. But again you wrote that ending so beautifully & I just can’t express how much I loved this story & how you took a different route than most authors I have read have. You are a remarkable author Cinder Blaze & I thank you generously for creating such a masterpiece.

Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
I was pleasantly surprised by this omega verse book. This 1 definitely had a few new twists And I really enjoyed reading it. The main female character was a badass and awesome. She had 1 best friend I wish we could have seen a little bit more of their friendship in this book. Her relationship with the male characters was good not to contrived or super instantaneous. And we had some fun plot twists that I didn't expect. I wish we had more of a follow up on the situation with her family her background and her mother who was a wench. I would definitely recommend this book.

Wow. Just wow. An amazing read
Format: Kindle
This book was eloquently written, or should I say the authors writing style is very eloquent? I loved the characters, and the story was quite compelling. I absolutely loved the FMC, she's a BA who doesn't take any crap & gives as good as she gets. A certain person certainly got his just desserts & then some, the earlier scenes of which were quite satisfying, had me punching the air & everything haha. All in all 20/10, great read

My opinion
Format: Kindle
Let me preface this by saying I really liked the story and the characters however, this book is in desperate need of some sort of editing. It's not misspelled words or formatting, but continuous run on sentences. Redundancies within the sentences. There were a couple of paragraphs that I had to go back and reread 3 or 4 times. Overall, I'd say it was worth the read.

Beautiful
Format: Kindle
I love omegaverses I had looked at this one multiple times thinking it's just another book about cocky rock star guys that let fame get to their heads and there are parts like that so I wasn't 100% off. I started reading the second book and met the fmc Astraea from the first one,after she had a run in with the aphla from the gym.😁 it gave me the push to stop and read book one first and im so glad I did this book was amazing their was so many characters I fell in love with hoping they will find their happily ever after. the guys were great, the plot was 🎯, and the ending had me 😭😭😭. I was wondering how nate could ever redeem himself, and he did. the last scene with him was sad, but I also felt it was beautiful. thank you to the author for making a beautiful omegaverse book that gave me all the feels. now I'm jumping straight into book two.
