Arabia by Anonim Pdf
This catalogue published by the Design Museum in Helsinki gives the history of the Finnish company famed for the quality and design of many everyday and art ceramics. Arabia was founded as Finland was industrializing in the 1870s. Its ability to maintain its standards over 135 years, when Finland was part of the Russian Empire, when it was independent, and after the turmoil of war has enabled it to play an important part in the international fame of Finnish design. Chapter one gives an overview of the Arabia factory{u2019}s achievements over the years; chapter two taps unpublished archival materials to give a sense of the working methods, techniques, and models of the company{u2019}s designers; chapter three sketches the evolution of design in table services from the Asian stylization of the 1870s to the innovative works of the mid twentieth century; chapter four follows the design history through the second half of the twentieth century when modernism prevailed. Subsequent chapters cover specific themes: renowned designers such as Kaj Franck and the origins and parallels of their best designs; reforms and new methods; the art department and the artists. Factory marks, bibliography, and index enhance the book{u2019}s usefulness as a source on Finnish design, and new photography of Arabia pieces in the Design Museum ensure the accuracy and beauty of the illustrations. -- Summary written by John W. Emerich, Bronze Horseman Literary Agency.

Ceramic, Art and Civilisation by Paul Greenhalgh Pdf
In his major new history, Paul Greenhalgh tells the story of ceramics as a story of human civilisation, from the Ancient Greeks to the present day. As a core craft technology, pottery has underpinned domesticity, business, religion, recreation, architecture, and art for millennia. Indeed, the history of ceramics parallels the development of human society. This fascinating and very human history traces the story of ceramic art and industry from the Ancient Greeks to the Romans and the medieval world; Islamic ceramic cultures and their influence on the Italian Renaissance; Chinese and European porcelain production; modernity and Art Nouveau; the rise of the studio potter, Art Deco, International Style and Mid-Century Modern, and finally, the contemporary explosion of ceramic making and the postmodern potter. Interwoven in this journey through time and place is the story of the pots themselves, the culture of the ceramics, and their character and meaning. Ceramics have had a presence in virtually every country and historical period, and have worked as a commodity servicing every social class. They are omnipresent: a ubiquitous art. Ceramic culture is a clear, unique, definable thing, and has an internal logic that holds it together through millennia. Hence ceramics is the most peculiar and extraordinary of all the arts. At once cheap, expensive, elite, plebeian, high-tech, low-tech, exotic, eccentric, comic, tragic, spiritual, and secular, it has revealed itself to be as fluid as the mud it is made from. Ceramics are the very stuff of how civilized life was, and is, led. This then is the story of human society's most surprising core causes and effects.

Unfolding the Public Art at Aalto University by Outi Turpeinen Pdf
What is the role of a public art collection in a university context? How does art impact teaching, research, and well-being? The art works in the Aalto University Campus buildings and outside areas form a unique and inspiring art collection. The art works focus on societally vital topics, such as gender balance, sexuality, sustainability, quantum physics, reflection, growth, materiality, beauty, and beyond. In this book, international top academic writers review the art collection through specific themes including how art encourages business studies or can public art be provocative. The book is richly illustrated with citations by the artists and anonymous comments by the users of the university spaces. The book unfolds in layers the processes of public art with facts and stories. Look at the pictures, read the citations, dwell on the articles and research more from the literature lists! This book is a must for art lovers and people who want to develop the use of public spaces.
