Alison Elizabeth Taylor : the sum of it. by Taylor, Alison Elizabeth,1973-artist.(CARDINAL)783191; Fry, Naomi,contributor.(CARDINAL)864400; Kemmerer, Allison N.,contributor.(CARDINAL)869482; Tillman, Lynne,contributor.(CARDINAL)190157; Addison Gallery of American Art,publisher,organizer,host institution.(CARDINAL)158550; Des Moines Art Center,host institution.(CARDINAL)137215; Distributed Art Publishers,publisher.(CARDINAL)784868;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 125-126)."Known for her daring fusion of marquetry (wood inlay) and painting, the meticulously crafted works of Alison Elizabeth Taylor are as much about seeing as they are about making. Juxtaposing the luxurious connotations of this ancient, highly refined craft with gritty images of postmillennial American life, Taylor creates a tension between surface and subject, appearance and reality. This publication traces the evolution of the artist's work from early paintings that explore space, line, color and form within the limited palette afforded by the grains and tones of natural woods, to vividly colored 'hybrids' that layer marquetry, paint, and photographic imagery, to new and increasingly complex works inspired by the resilience of the artist's urban neighborhood and community during the pandemic."--

Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) founder John H. Adams - a widely recognized pioneer of environmental action - was working as a lawyer for the U.S. Attorney's Office when he and fellow lawyers, outraged at the levels of pollution in their air and water, teamed up to form an environmental advocacy group. Since 1970, NRDC has grown into an international powerhouse with 1.2 million members and online activists, and a staff of scientists and lawyers whose mission is to safeguard the planet: its people, its plants and animals, and the natural systems on which all life depends. This powerful memoir conveys the struggles and victories of building a large political action organization, telling the story of NRDC and the environmental movement it sparked."--Jacket.
