A History In Objects

This compelling illustrated history in objects traces Japan's complex past through its material culture. Over 350 artifacts--from the everyday to the sacred--highlight significant moments and themes from ancient times until the present, including religion and culture, agriculture and industry, urbanization and immigration, and politics and trade. This ambitious visual account, spanning over fifteen thousand years of history, examines the materials, ideas, and cross-cultural connections that continue to shape Japan.Historian Angus Lockyer reveals the stories behind an intriguing selection of objects from the British Museum Collection. The book explores the history of the region through artifacts, from the lengthy prehistoric record, through the rise of Buddhism and a military elite in Japan's classical and medieval periods, to the economic and cultural developments of the early modern and modern eras.Ancient flame pots and jewelry, textiles and armor, folding screens and contemporary manga provide glimpses of the lives of farmers and merchants, medieval warriors, and modern women. A wide range of ceramics and sculpture, metalwork and lacquerware, paintings, prints, and textiles provide a rich and compelling portrait of a society and culture that occupies a special place in the imagination of its citizens and visitors.

A Natural History of the Studio

Described as 'exhilarating' by Katy Hessel, a compelling and lively history that examines the lives of British artists from the late-19th century to today. In This is Tomorrow Michael Bird takes a fresh look at the 'long twentieth century', from the closing years of Queen Victoria's reign to the turn of the millennium, through the lens of the artists who lived and worked in this ever-changing Britain. Bird examines how the rhythms of change and adaptation in art became embedded in the collective consciousness of the nation and vividly evokes the personalities who populate and drive this story, looking beyond individual careers and historical moments to weave together interconnecting currents of change that flowed through London, Glasgow, Leeds, Cornwall, the Caribbean, New York, Moscow and Berlin. From the American James McNeill Whistler's defence of his new kind of modern art against the British art establishment in the latter half of the 19th century to the Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson's melting icebergs in London, he traverses the lives of the artists that have recorded, questioned and defined our times. At the heart of this original book are the successive waves of displacement caused by global wars and persecution that conversely brought fresh ideas and new points of view to the British Isles; educational reforms opened new routes for young people from working-class backgrounds; movements of social change enabled the emergence of female artists and artists of colour; and the emergence of the mass media shaped modern modes of communication and culture. These are the ebbs and flows that Michael Bird teases out in this panoramic account of Britain and its artists in across the twentieth century.
