Book All American Folk Arts and Crafts

Download or read book All American Folk Arts and Crafts written by William C. Ketchum and published by Rizzoli International Publications. This book was released on 1986 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Written by a recognized authority in the field and illustrated with many specially commissioned full-color photographs, the book proudly present the spirit of the American nation as it has been expressed by generations of American craftspeople. The nation's symbols--the eagle, the flag, Uncle Sam, Liberty--and its ideals--freedom, home, religion--have been worked and reworked in many dramatic forms for more than two hundred years. Each artist has imbued his work with his generation's understanding of what the country stands for. The variety of forms of patriotic folk art is matched only by the variety of the artists. Painting and sculpture, carved weathervanes and whirligigs, ceramics, quilts and rugs, toys, painted furniture, shop signs, and religious symbols have been created by men and women of all ages and social levels, some working to earn a living, some working only for the joy of creating. Each chapter covers one symbol or ideal and shows how it has been reproduced in various forms that range from home-spun simplicity to ingenious sophistication, evoking the individuality, self-confidence, and optimism that are central to the American experience."--book jacket.
