The New Artisans

Mi era già caduto l'occhio su questo libro uscito di fresco, l'argomento del Neo-Artigiano mi interessa particolarmente ma il look modaiolo mi rendeva titubante. L'autore Olivier Dupon ha un passato nella moda ( e si vede !) ma al momento si dedica alla rinascita dell'artigianato creativo dal suo blog Dossier37.
Ieri mi è capitato fra le mani e devo dire che malgrado non lo abbia comprato ( un altro libro è nella lista d'attesa), ho passato un po' di tempo a spulciarlo. 

Il look fa' un po' troppo rivista di moda e tutto le foto hanno un po' lo stesso stile, piacevole ma alla fine sembrano tutti uguali. Ed è un peccato perchè i 75 artigiani sono veramente bravi, e i loro prodotti meritano attenzione. La ceramica è ben rappresentata, c'è Mel Robson, IKUKO Iwamoto, Sissel Wathne ecc...insomma se vi capita dategli un' occhiata. Su FB c'è la pagina del libro con info e interviste x comparlo c'è il buon vecchio Amazon o Thames and Hudson

This book had already caught my eyes at first, finally yesterday I had the time to go through it. The book is cute, maybe even too cute (I like a bit nitty gritty !!!) but the 75 artisans are good as gold. These re-invention of the artisan is an interesting topic, that is very close to my heart, so welcome to this new book by blogger Olivier Dupon! (check his blog Dossier37)

Ceramics are well represented in the book with names like  Mel Robson, IKUKO Iwamoto, Sissel Wathne...
well it's defenetly worth more than a look !

Intersecting Disciplines
23 February - 26 March 2010
Special Viewing - Tuesday 23 February, 5.00-7.30pm

Intersecting Disciplines presents recent work of seven contemporary artists and designers, graduates of the Ceramics BA Honours course at Camberwell College of Arts in a period from 1978 through to 2009. The range of these professional practices represents the continuing evolving nature of the subject; from that of the studio ceramicist, industrial designer, commissioned public art, installation and performance artist. The points of 'intersections' are numerous in terms of an awareness of craft skill, the discipline and understanding of material and process, scale, context, design and conceptual issues and is a timely reminder of the creative use of the medium of Ceramics.
