Remaining Flowers

Remaining Flowers by Ost, Daniel. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9789020953244.

An exquisitely photographed volume of cutting-edge floral decorator and Belgian flower shop owner Dani%l Osts innovative floral and leaf/branch/twig sculptures. He brings the reader into a totally new realm of viewing plants and flowers as art and architecture. Dani%l Ost is one of the European plant/flower artists and designers who have made such an impact as art-as-live material. You have to see these photographs and carefully read the inspiring text to understand why you will never again be able to look at plants or flowers the same way. Ultimately, Dani%l Ost explains that though flowers and plants must be cut or separated from life, the beauty and architectural integrity of these materials in the hands of a contemporary master can work a miracle of design and transcend everything we know about traditional floral arranging.
