About this item
Founded in 1913, Prada has evolved into a brand with a unique ability to embed thought-provoking, clever ideas in totally pleasurable objects - from shoes and bags to coats, dresses, and skirts, the clothing makes a statement. And Pradasphere - both in its package and content - does the same. Pradasphere is a collection of archival objects arranged to reveal the complex, often- intertwined obsessions of one of the world's most influential designers. The book takes you on an aesthetic journey that spans the past 30 years. Exclusive photographs of clothing and accessories illustrate Prada's design narrative and show the exquisite craftsmanship and materials behind the creations. Pradasphere also explores Prada's culture, including advertising photography, architecture, and commissioned films by directors such as Wes Anderson and Ridley Scott.
About the Author
Writing is my passion. I have been writing stories for children for years, although it's only been a couple of years I've been self-publishing them. I write mainly for my young granddaughter and my wife, who suffered an anoxic brain injury years ago and has memory problems. I use our family and pets in stories, and it helps remind her of all that was near and dear to her.I am now writing a series of short stories using brother and sister ants as the main characters. Marty and Millie find themselves in situations that children might get into, then they must find a way out. They are fun and entertaining stories, but they also carry a message.I have been expanding my horizons lately, and have ventured into more adult stories. I just finished publishing four short stories that I am calling First Person, an accounting of events in life. I am using the pen name Anthony Miller for these stories to differentiate from my children's stories.Now that I am retired, I have become interested in literacy and have a blog on the subject. http://rockwritings.wordpress.com/ On the same blog I also occasionally write about bullying, another subject that I am interested in.
