「NEW BOOKS」Finnish Ceramics: Artists' Utopia.

Finnish ceramics grew in the mid-20th century to create a global trend, captivating people with rich expressions unbound by conventional ideas and exerting a major influence on Japan's craft world as well. From the 1900 Paris Exposition Universelle and the influx of the Arts and Crafts movement at the end of the 19th century, to the training of ceramists at the Central School of Arts and Crafts and the activities of the art department at the Arabia factory—this is the first book to systematically present the full picture, including historical context and developmental history from the dawn period through the heyday of the 1950s–60s, together with 137 masterpieces. Official catalog for the exhibition of the same title.
