Invited to curate an exhibition based on the collection of the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum in New York, Maira Kalman spent a year selecting objects based solely on the fact that they caused “a gasp of delight”. This book is about those objects, with a first part on the author’s background and a third on the objects she collects or really likes. Richly illustrated with her beautiful drawings, colourful and expressive, and accompanied by short and meaningful texts, this book was a pleasure to look at and read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“TheRE are MEMORIES.
Vague and FleeTing. OR SHARP and SEARING.
MOODs Leaving a SENse of URGENCY. OR disquiet.
OR a SENSE OF Well-Being and Belonging.
And Always, oBjects inhabit the memories.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
