In this beautifully illustrated volume, published in celebration of the Renwick Gallery's fortieth anniversary, author Nicholas Bell highlights forty artists (all under the age of forty) actively engaged in creating objects that are transforming contemporary craft. 40 Under 40 investigates evolving notions of craft within traditional media such as ceramics and metalwork, as well as in fields as varied as sculpture, industrial design, installation art, fashion, and sustainable manufacturing. Viewing craft's heritage as a set of flexible tools rather than a rigid structure, Bell shows how this exciting group of young artists has produced work that not only breaks boundaries, but also uses an expanded conceptual framework, establishing craft's important role in the world of contemporary art and culture today. Distributed for the Smithsonian American Art Museum Exhibition Schedule: Smithsonian American Art Museum (07/20/12-02/3/13)

Seller's Description:
VG-(missing dj, otherwise fine. ) Cream canvas with green numbers on front cover, 260 pp., many color & BW illus. Issued in conjunction with a 2012-2013 exhibition that "examines the expanding role of the handmade in contemporary culture through the work of the next generation of artists. Organized in celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the Renwick Gallery, the Smithsonian's branch museum for American craft and decorative arts, this project gathers forty makers born since 1972, the year the Renwick opened to the public. Apparent are rapidly evolving notions of craft, ranging from traditional media, such as ceramics and jewelry, to fields as varied as sculpture, industrial design, performance and installation art, fashion design, sustainable manufacturing, and mathematics. The breadth of work signifies craft's evolution beyond the politics of past aesthetic movements toward a more holistic view of its prescriptive power. Ultimately what bind these artists are not specific materials or processes so much as a philosophy for living differently in the modern world." (inside front cover).
