Modern In The Making: Postwar Craft And Design In British Columbia

MODERN IN THE MAKING: POSTWAR CRAFT AND DESIGN IN BRITISH COLUMBIA  accompanies the Vancouver Art Gallery exhibition (to January 3, 2021), surveying furniture, fashion, ceramics, jewellery and textiles designed and produced in the province in the mid-20th century. Richly illustrated, with essays by the show’s curators Daina Augaitis, Allan Collier and Stephanie Rebick and others, the publication revisits the post-war period, reviewing (and deconstructing) utopian promises made by modernist design.
