Art can seem very separate from our daily lives today, and, as our
society careens its way through change and conflict, it may seem
increasingly irrelevant. Art advocate Kevin Wallace, director of
the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts, provides reminders of how
and why we thrive when we connect art and life, including
first-person insights from 150+ contemporary artists like Binh Pho,
Kay Sekimachi, Avital Sheffer, Lino Tagliapietra, Jan Hopkins,
Beatrice Wood, and dozens more. Throughout history, art was
naturally intertwined with people's daily lives: a bowl for water,
a carving to record a war, objects to capture religion and
identity. This handbook juxtaposes our past with "big ideas"
relating to contemporary art, helping to demystify them so that we
can repair the connection, and turn our lives into art.
The body of a legendary North Woods murderer dissipears from the
local cemetery. Soon after, murders and strange events once again
grip the community. As with the author's
This craftsman's companion celebrates the woodturners and
innovative artists from around the world who have taken bowl-making
to a higher level of aesthetic form. Little Book of Wooden Bowls
features 31 of today's finest woodworkers and artisans--such as
Virginia Dodson, Binh Pho, Harvey Fein, Paul Fennell, and Marilyn
Campbell--who share their personal motivations, thought processes,
and the studio techniques they employ to bring out the breathtaking
beauty of wood. Each artist's profile includes full-color,
studio-quality photographs of their most spectacular work,
including vessels, bowls, platters, and more, along with insights
on their design ideas and objectives. Curated by prominent wood art
authorities Kevin Wallace and Terry Martin, this book is sure to
become a treasure in every woodworking library.
