An exploration of the evolution of the Japanese Mingei (folk art) movement within the context of today's concerns Originating in Japan in the 1920s, the Mingei movement was based on the principle that beauty is inherent in handmade, everyday objects created by anonymous craftspeople. Spearheaded by the philosopher Yanagi Sō etsu and the potters Hamada Shō ji and Bernard Leach, the movement sought to elevate the status of folk craft in a rapidly modernizing society. Yet over the past hundred years, "Mingei" has acquired new meanings. This richly illustrated publication is the first to interrogate these from a variety of perspectives. Featuring nine essays by an international team of experts alongside a series of profiles of contemporary Japanese makers, this expansive book covers a range of objects, from ceramics and furniture to kimono and kokeshi. Contributors from Japanese, Korean, and Western backgrounds not only explore the historical roots of the movement but also shed new light on the ways in which its principles are relevant to today's personal, social, and environmental concerns.
