Produktbeschreibung
Crafts and decorative arts are changing rapidly as a result of the growing interaction with visual arts, architecture and design and as a reaction to various social changes – in turn helping to forge a new identity. In this publication, the vanguard of Dutch conceptual craft (vrije vormgeving) makers and their works are presented and explored, while also setting this movement within the broader context of the worlds of contemporary art and design. A total of 94 pieces, created by just as many makers drawn from a wide range of disciplines and selected by an expert panel are generously documented here one to a page. Works are brought under a number of general themes and accompanied by six informative essays.
