Dangerous Liaisons. Art·Hand·Work offers a sharp insight into the ongoing debate about what craft is and why these discussions keep resurfacing.
The book explores how craft has existed in a tense triangle with design and visual art, marked by rivalry, shifting perspectives, and struggles over definitions.
Contributors from both within and beyond the field present their viewpoints. Ranging from accessible essays to polemical interventions, their texts together paint a multifaceted picture of the role and future of craft.
Is craft an autonomous art form? Or has it today become primarily a method and a mode of expression within contemporary art?
