Book Description

Barbara Lane Interiors takes readers on a stunning photographic tour of the art-filled, meticulously tailored interiors designed by Barbara Lane, whose lifelong passion for collecting avant-garde paintings, sculpture, and furniture and whose acute attention to comfort, originality, and custom detail are reflected in more than 25 homes and executive offices from New York to Miami to Paris. Presented in this book for the first time, Lane's remarkable body of work, spanning more than four decades, focuses fresh attention on the importance of art and design in our everyday lives. Celebrated here is an international list of the 20th- and 21st-century's most revered, inspiring, and ground-breaking artists, including Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Longo, Claes Oldenburg, Cindy Sherman, Cy Twombly, and Andy Warhol. Lane's interiors also present furniture by such 20th-century modern masters as André Arbus, Jean Royère, and Jacques Quinet, as well as the work of the finest contemporary designers, including Eric Schmitt, Philippe Anthonioz, Christian Astuguevieille, and many others. Captured by the design world's most accomplished photographers, Barbara Lane's one-of-a-kind interiors offer a rare and deeply personal invitation to enter the private spaces of visionary collectors.
