Art In The Making – Essays by Artists About What They Do
Special Pre-Order Offers End March 15
This 350-page softcover book will contain 80 short, illustrated essays by makers working in a wide range of artistic and artisanal fields, offering a glimpse into the personal motivations, methods, and reasons that people continue to make artistic things in our modern, technological age. Each contributor was asked to address the following four questions about their practice:
1. How did you come to what you do?
2. How do you do it?
3. Where do you see the distinctions, if any, between your art and your craft?
4. Why do you do it?
Our contributors’ answers to these questions have proven to be as various and distinct as their individual art forms.
