About the book

Offering a challenging new argument for the collaborative power of craft, this volume analyzes the philosophies, politics and practicalities of collaborative craft work. The book is organized into four sections covering the cooperation and compromises required by the collaborative process; the potential of recent technological advances for the field of craft; the implications of cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural collaborations for authority and ownership; and the impact of crafted collaborations on the institutions where we work, learn and teach. Featuring essays by established makers and artists such as Allison Smith (US) and Brass Art (UK), curator Lesley Millar, textile designer Trish Belford and distinguished thinker Glenn Adamson, this book will be essential reading for students, artists, makers, curators and scholars across a number of fields.
