This book is a brilliant little window into the
vibrant world that is the Leu family. The artwork within reflects the
nature of the individuals who conceived it and illustrates the talent
and energy that drives this family, now four generations strong, to
continue create and share.
...from the inside cover.....
With a unique approach, this
colourful book illustrates the work of a creative family of artists
from Switzerland, spanning the years 1953 to the present. Eva Aeppli
the first wife of Jean Tinguely, was the artistic pioneer of the
family. Her children are Felix Leu aka Don Feliz and Miriam Tinguely.
Felix went on with his wife
Loretta Leu aka Y Maria to raise a family, many of them artists who
with their partners work in a wide variety of styles. The collection
contains selections from Eva Aeppli's life work. Don Feliz's
surrealistic psychedelic art, the mandala art of Y Maria, works from
Miriam Tinguely, Filip Leu, Titine K-Leu, Aia Leu, Tanina Munchkina,
Ajja S.F. Leu and some pieces by other members of the family.
Featuring a diversity of art
with drawings, etchings, watercolours, paintings and sculptures from
the many artists in this family. Throughout the generations
represented here there has also been a tradition of collaborative
works of art, and a selection of these are included.
