{"product_id":"rooted-revived-reinvented-kristin-schwain-9780764353734","title":"Rooted, Revived, Reinvented: Basketry in America","description":"This book unfolds a history of American basketry, from its origins in Native American, immigrant, and slave communities to its contemporary presence in the fine art world. Ten contributing authors from different areas of expertise, plus over 250 photos, insightfully show how baskets convey meaning through the artists' selection of materials; the techniques they use; and the colors, designs, patterns, and textures they employ. Accompanying a museum exhibition of the same name, the book illustrates how the processes of industrialization changed the audiences, materials, and uses for basketry. It also surveys the visual landscape of basketry today; while some contemporary artists seek to maintain and revive traditions practiced for centuries, others combine age-old techniques with nontraditional materials to generate cultural commentary. This comprehensive treasury will be of vital interest to artists, collectors, curators, and historians of American basketry, textiles, and sculpture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kristin Schwain,Josephine Stealey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 076435373X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764353734\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Craft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.30h x 8.60w x 1.10d","brand":"Kristin Schwain","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48441324568831,"sku":"9780764353734","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cfa421d6-9aee-44e7-aa17-13c46142d048.jpg?v=1777190168","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rooted-revived-reinvented-kristin-schwain-9780764353734","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
