À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Maira Kalman paints her highly personal worldview in this inimitable combination of image and text An irresistible invitation to experience life through a beloved artist's psyche, The Principles of Uncertainty is a compilation of Maira Kalman's New York Times columns. Part personal narrative, part documentary, part travelogue, part chapbook, and all Kalman, these brilliant, whimsical paintings, ideas, and images - which initially appear random - ultimately form an intricately interconnected worldview, an idiosyncratic inner monologue.

Reviews
"Sublime... Kalman's elegantly witty and at times melancholy narrative runs arm in arm with her unmistakable paintings on a serendipitous romp through the history of the world." -- Vanity Fair "Wildly original...there's nothing else even remotely like it... This hilarious, wise, and deeply moving volume [is] the ultimate picture book for grown-ups." -- O Magazine "An odd treasure."-- Ariel Levy, The New York Times Book Review "Within this work, as much literary as artistic, one finds the assurance (the certainty!) that the human condition is inescapable but not insurmountable."-- The New York Observer "In her distinctive, muscularly whimsical paintings with sad-funny handwritten annotations, Kalman encounters, well, everything...More personal than much of her previous work, the book is simultaneously idiosyncratic and universal. And utterly lovable." -- Culture + Travel "This is a unique, warmly intelligent book for the enjoyment of artists, writers and anyone who delights in works of genuine imagination."-- L.K. Hanson, Minnesota Star Tribune "My absolute favorite book of recent memory: an exquisite and delightful and peculiarly illustrated memoir about...well, the search for the meaning of life. I will be giving this book to everyone I know." -- Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love, "Sublime...  Kalman's elegantly witty and at times melancholy narrative runs arm in arm with her unmistakable paintings on a serendipitous romp through the history of the world." -- Vanity Fair   "Wildly original...there's nothing else even remotely like it...

Avis les plus pertinents

  • Colorful, thought-provoking and fun!

    Just finished reading the book 'The Principles of Uncertainty' by Maira Kalman. I bought it on a recommendation. At first I didn't think I would like the book, but after thumbing through the beautiful colorful illustrations and finally reading it, I have to admit I really enjoyed it. I could even relate to it on some level. It's a picture book told by Ms. Kalman and reveals some insightful and thought-provoking themes, and of course her colorful illustrations are gorgeously simplistic. She asks some very thought-provoking questions that make you think about life and the simple joy it brings.

  • LOVED it !!! But this book is so very heavy in weight.....

    Wonderful book! Great drawings and humorous, personal, chatty text.
