Modern origami

Finally back in print! James Sakoda's creations are totally different from the works of other origami artists. The book is appropriately titled, as these works reflect a modern aesthetic, reminiscent of the American Abstract Expressionist movement. The models possess an abstract, sophisticated and elegant simplicity that suggests an object rather than rendering it in complicated (and tedious)detail ... and that is the essence of the art of Origami! His eight-point star has survived the test of time and is as beautiful as it was when first presented. The diagrams are clear and good for beginners. If you're looking for something unique and distinctive, check out this book.
