Preface Michele Oka Doner is an internationally acclaimed artist and designer whose prolific career spans four decades. This sumptuously illustrated monograph surveys the remarkable breadth of her artistic production, which encompasses sculpture, furniture, jewelry, public art, and functional objects from fireplace tools to teething rings. Oka Doner is perhaps best known for her numerous public art commissions, including those at New York’s Herald Square Subway Station and the Miami International Airport. Whether large-scale architectural projects, or intimately scaled objects, all of Oka Doner’s work is fueled by a lifelong study and appreciation of the natural world, from which she derives her formal vocabulary. Aptly called "nature’s scribe," she translates organic forms into objects of natural seduction. Oka Doner’s oeuvre is one seamless gesture, aimed at infusing our experience with beauty and wonder. This valuable study examines the evolution and cultural implications of Oka Doner’s exceptional art, featuring essays by Suzanne Ramljak, art historian, editor of Metalsmith, and former editor of Sculpture; Arthur C. Danto, Johnsonian Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Columbia University, and art critic for The Nation; the late Morris Lapidus, architect of many South Florida landmarks including Miami Beach’s Fontainebleau hotel; and Mitchell Wolfson Jr., founder of The Wolfsonian Museum and publisher of The Journal of Decorative and Propaganda Arts.
