The book Art Forms in Nature is a collection of prints, made by the
scientist Ernst Haeckel, of an enormous variety of flora and fauna
from the sea-including microscopic Radiolaria, starfish and jelly
fish-and since Prestel published it in 1998, it has been a
favourite with artists, designers, illustrators and anyone who
enjoys the wondrous forms of the natural world. Now paper engineer
Maike Biederstaedt has transformed Haeckel's transcendent work into
a three-dimensional book that allows readers to appreciate
Haeckel's vivid colours, exceptional precision and fascination with
patterns and geometry. This stunning book features seven pop-ups
that allow readers to see nature's brilliance the way that Haeckel
did-as marvellous, mathematically based creations that support his
theory of the unity of all living things. Certain to appeal to his
huge variety of fans, this pop-up version of a timeless classic
will be treasured for years to come.
