Andy Lim of Darling Publications-Cologne & New York did it again.
Darling Publications, since the 2 monumental Monograph books on Karl Fritsch (2007) worldwide known as the premier adress for exclusive publications on jewellery will reveal its newest surprise coup. During the Handwerksmesse 2008 in Munich another spectacular book was presented at the occasion of the solo show Gold and Bones from 2007 Förderpreis der Stadt München recipient Lisa Walker (New Zealand).

An impressive retrospective resumé of Lisa Walker´s work from 1992 till today.
