Assouline - Ibiza Bohemia - Coffee Table Books

About this product

Ibiza Bohemia explores the colorful cosmos of the legendary Balearic island, with its scenic cliffs, its legendary cast of characters and the archetypal interiors. From roaring nightlife to peaceful yoga retreats, Ibiza is a quintessential Mediterranean hotspot. Ibiza’s hippie-chic atmosphere appeals to a wide audience, providing the perfect milieu for artistic freedom, spiritual exploration, and international glamour. It is a place to reinvent oneself and to walk the fine line between civilization and wilderness.Since the 1930s, it has been a magical escape: first for artists and intellectuals fleeing oppression, including Walter Benjamin and Man Ray; then for Errol Flynn, Elizabeth Taylor, Laurence Olivier and other Hollywood stars seeking privacy in postwar Europe; for hippies during the Summer of Love; later, for rock legends including Pink Floyd, Freddie Mercury, Joni Mitchell and David Bowie; and more recently for style-setters such as Kate Moss and Jade Jagger. These and many more creative minds have enjoyed all the island has to offer.English edition.
