Hardbound. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Fascinating study of how an essentially urban aesthetic - that of 'folk art' - has a corrupting influence on the art and the (mostly rural) folk artists themselves. The concept of Japanese folk craft, or mingei, as conceptualized by the founder of the movement, Yanagi Muneyoshi, involves the work of 'unknown craftsmen', close to nature, using simple techniques and local material, in a spirit of cooperation with fellow craftsmen and for little personal gain. The author explores what occurs once the prices and demand for such works from urban collectors bring wealth and fame for the creators. Some foxing on board edges and light foxing on page edges. Internal pages clean and unmarked. ix, 252 pp., 46 b&w photos, 2 maps, bibliography, index. Size: 22 x 15 cm.…
