Book excerpt: Containing a diverse range of styles, the works created under the Arts & Crafts (A&C) banner originated in the ideas of writers such as Ruskin & Pugin. It was a triumphant combination of artistic skill & utility. Producing beautiful & highly crafted, yet functional, works was the aim of the craftspeople who followed the A&C credo. This ethic of form & function is clearly seen in the works produced by artists in glass & pottery, who incorporated a variety of stunning methods & decorative techniques. This book looks at the works of such artists such as William Morris, Philip Webb, Mackintosh, the Martin brothers, Wedgwood, McLaughlin & Daly. This is a superb introduction to one of the most attractive areas of this fascinating design movement. Stunning color photos.

Download or read book Art of Glass written by Christopher Merrett and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-17 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known as THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS BOOK ON GLASSMAKING, Art of Glass was first published, in Italian, in 1612, as L'Arte Vetraria by Antonio Neri who claimed to have experience of glassmaking in several countries and described the best practice of that time, particularly in making coloured glasses. A second edition printed in 1661 made the work more widely known.An English translation by Christopher Merrett MD, one of the early Fellows of the Royal Society, was published in 1662. Merrett added very extensive notes of his own which almost doubled the length of the book.That text became the master for subsequent editions. It was eventually translated into Latin, French, German, and Spanish, and reprinted at least twenty times over the course of almost two centuries.This edition reproduces Merrett's original layout, including the printers ornaments, but is set more legibly and corrects some errors.It is introduced by an essay written in 1962 by Professor W. E. S. Turner FRS which explains the background and importance of this work.

Download or read book Why We Make Things and Why it Matters written by Peter Korn and published by Random House. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we make things? Why do we choose the emotionally and physically demanding work of bringing new objects into the world with creativity and skill? Why does it matter that we make things well? What is the nature of work? And what is the nature of a good life? This January, whether you're honing your craft or turning your hand to a new skill, discover the true value in what it means to be a craftsman in a mass-produced world. Part memoir, part polemic, part philosophical reflection, this is a book about the process of creation. For woodworker Peter Korn, the challenging work of bringing something new and meaningful into the world through one's own efforts is exactly what generates authenticity, meaning, and fulfilment, for which many of us yearn. This is not a 'how-to' book in any sense, Korn wants to get at the 'why' of craft in particular, and the satisfaction of creative work in general, to understand its essential nature. How does the making of objects shape our identities? How do the products of creative work inform society? In short, what does the process of making things reveal to us about ourselves? Korn draws on four decades of hands-on experience to answer these questions eloquently in this heartfelt, personal and revealing book. 'If you are in the building trade or just love creating things as a hobby, you will find this book fascinating' The Sun
