Here's another edition to add to the growing file of interesting book covers: Indonesian Textiles, a Tai Gallery/Textile Arts publication with special handwoven cover. Cost is $60 including shipping. Copies are also available without the cover for $40.
Above, a detail view of a 17th-century resist and mordant dyed handspun cotton heirloom textile/ Ma'a made in Gujarat, India and collected in Sulawesi, Indonesia. (From the gallery's 30th Anniversary Textile Exhibition in 2009.) Full view below.
Turning to albums and logos, click here to listen to designer John Pasche describe how a piece of Indian art influenced the iconic logo he created for the Rolling Stones in 1971. Today the graphic design is in the V & A's permanent collection.
