Book Synopsis Gustav Stickley and the American Arts & Crafts Movement by : Kevin W. Tucker
Download or read book Gustav Stickley and the American Arts & Crafts Movement written by Kevin W. Tucker. This book was released on 2010. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After three decades of Arts and Crafts exhibitions that have surveyed the entire movement or focused on its many regional manifestations, Gustav Stickley, the movement's central figure in the US, now receives his due. This exhibition catalogue, redolent with stunning color photographs of 100-plus selected Stickley pieces, draws its intellectual credibility from essays by six leading scholars of the Arts and Crafts movement: Tucker, Brandt, David Cathers, Joseph Cunningham, Beth Ann Macpherson, and Tommy MacPherson. They examine the cultural and economic circumstances of Stickley's emergence around 1900, the formulation of his business strategies and ideals, the role of Irene Sargent and The Craftsman magazine, the paradoxical nature of the craftsman home, and Stickley's own two homes. Stickley is a large subject, but this catalogue captures the essence of the man and his work. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above; general readers. General Readers; Upper-division Undergraduates; Graduate Students; Researchers/Faculty; Professionals/Practitioners. Reviewed by J. Quinan.
