Neuware - Der Begriff Kunsthandwerk wirft genauso viele Fragen auf, wie es vorgefasste Meinungen dazu gibt. Mit ihm verbinden sich Individualit�t, Einmaligkeit, multiperspektivische Natur, dekoratives Potential, k�nstlerische Qualit�t und ein hoher Erlebniswert. Diese, die gleichnamige Ausstellung begleitende Publikation untersucht die Entwicklungen des Kunsthandwerks ab der zweiten H�lfte des 20. Jahrhunderts am Beispiel der Sammlung des Museum Angewandte Kunst. Ma�stabsgetreue Werkabbildungen von Tellern, M�beln, Bestecken, Schmuck oder Vasen �berraschen durch die Vielfalt ihrer Erscheinungsweisen. Zehn Autor:innen begegnen in ihren Essays mit unterschiedlichen Zug�ngen dem weit gefassten Terrain Kunsthandwerk: von der Verbindung zwischen Ostasien und der westlichen Keramik, �ber die Handarbeit der Romantik bis zum Abenteuer Kunsthandwerk.

About this title

Synopsis

The term ‘craftsmanship’ is associated with individuality, uniqueness, decorative potential, artistic quality, attention to material and to process. But what does craftsmanship mean today? This exhibition catalog of nearly 600 pages explores the meaning of craftsmanship in the context of the outstanding collection of the Museum Angewandte Kunst (Frankfurt, Germany) in a monumental survey of 700 items dating from 1945 to the present. Scale reproductions of plates, furniture, cutlery, jewelry and vases highlight their surprising variety of form. In their essays, the ten authors take diverse approaches to the broad terrain of craftsmanship: from the relationship between East Asia and Western ceramics, via the handicrafts of the Romantic period, to the adventure that is arts and crafts today. The title plays on the perceived parallel between the ability of the cactus to survive and thrive in adverse conditions, and the future of the hand-made object in an industrial world.
