Résumé:
This book is a timely and engaging introduction to the way that artists working in all media think about craft. Workmanship is key to today's visual arts, when high 'production values' are becoming increasingly commonplace. Yet craft's centrality to contemporary art has received little serious attention from critics and historians. Dispensing with clichéd arguments that craft is art, Adamson persuasively makes a case for defining craft in a more nuanced fashion. The interesting thing about craft, he argues, is that it is perceived to be 'inferior' to art. The book consist of an overview of various aspects of this second-class identity, supplementarity, sensuality, skill, the pastoral, and the amateur. It also provides historical case studies analyzing craft's role in a variety of disciplines, including architecture, design, contemporary art, and the crafts themselves. Thinking through Craft will be essential reading for anyone interested in craft or broader visual art.

Résumé:
This monograph on Seattle-based architect Tom Kundig presents five projects, from their early conceptual sketches to their final wrought, intimate details. Kundig's houses reflect a sustained and active collaborative process between designer, craftsmen, and owners, resulting in houses that bring to life the architect's intentions, the materials used, and lines of beauty. Kundig's work is inspired by both the industrial structures with which he grew up in the Pacific Northwest and the craft cultures that are fostered there. His buildings meld industrial sensibilities and materials such as Cor-ten steel and concrete with an intuitive understanding of scale.
