Specificatii
Maira Kalman, the author of the bestsellers The Principles of
Uncertainty and The Elements of Style, and Alex Kalman, the
designer, curator, writer, and founder of Mmuseumm, combine their
talents in this captivating family memoir, a creative blend of
narrative and striking visuals that is a paean to an exceptional
woman and a celebration of individuality, personal expression, and
the art of living authentically.In the early 1950s, Jewish emigre
Sara Berman arrived in the Bronx with her husband and two young
daughters When the children were grown, she and her husband
returned to Israel, but Sara did not stay for long. In the late
1960s, at age sixty, she left her husband after thirty-eight years
of marriage. One night, she packed a single suitcase and returned
alone to New York City, moving intoa studio apartment in Greenwich
Village near her family. In her new home, Sara began discovering
new things and establishing new rituals, from watching Jeopardy
each night at 7:00 to eating pizza at the Museum of Modern Art's
cafeteria every Wednesday. She also began discarding the
unnecessary, according to the Kalmans: in a burst of personal
expression, she decided to wear only white. Sara kept her
belongings in an extraordinarily clean and organized closet. Filled
with elegant, minimalist, heavily starched, impeccably pressed and
folded all-white clothing, including socks and undergarments, as
well as carefully selected objects--from a potato grater to her
signature perfume, Chanel No.19--the space was sublime. Upon her
death in 2004, her family decided to preserve its pristine
contents, hoping to find a way to exhibit them one day.In 2015, the
Mmuseumm, a new type of museum located in a series of unexpected
locations founded and curated by Sara's grandson, Alex Kalman,
recreated the space in a popular exhibit--Sara Berman's Closet--in
Tribeca. The installation eventually moved to the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, and in June 2018, will become an outdoor monument to
independence at Independence Mall in Philadelphia.Inspired by the
exhibit, this spectacular illustrated memoir, packed with family
photographs, exclusive images, and Maira Kalman's distinctive
paintings, is an ode to Sara's life, freedom, and re-invention.
Sara Berman's Closet is an indelible portrait of the human
experience--overcoming hardship, taking risks, experiencing joy,
enduring loss. It is also a reminder of the significance of the
seemingly insignificant moments in our lives--the moments we take
for granted that may turn out to be the sweetest. Filled with a
daughter and grandson's wry and touching observations conveyed in
Maira's signature script, Sara Berman's Closest is a beautiful,
loving tribute to one woman's indomitable spirit.
