Gadzhiomar Izabakarov: iuvelir, khudozhnik, pedagog (Gadzhiomar Izabakarov: jeweler, artist, teacher)

Makhachkala: Dagestan, 2016. Sewn cl. The text explains Islamic ornamentation adducing many model patterns which form the basis of jewelry and metalwork designs in the Caucasus. Izabakarov, the contemporary artist on whom this monograph is based, uses imaginative designs drawing on traditional Islamic art to exploit all that can be done with geometric (nonhuman) forms. Published here are both design drawings and actual works made by Izabakarov and his students — arms and sundry vessels ornamented with Islamic motifs. 199 p., 28 cm, approx. 200 color illus., Rus.
