Architectural Textiles: Tent Bands of Central Asia
Richard Isaacson, 2007

This exhibition catalog, Architectural Textiles: Tent Bands of Central
Asia by Richard Isaacson, is a ground breaking study. Nothing like
this has ever been published before. Isaacson explores the use of the
tent band as the functional support for the trellis tent (yurt) and
its decorative role. This book includes the technical analysis of 32
objects as well as detail images of all the bands. The final section
of the book allows the reader to see the full design of these bands
across a three page spread, which average 1' x 52' in size. To order,
please visit www.textilemuseumshop.org.
