Paperback. Condition: New. The term 'jar' refers to any man-made shape with the capacity to enclose something. Few objects are as universal and multi-functional as a jar - regardless of whether they contain food or drink, matter or a void, life-giving medicine or the ashes of the deceased. As ubiquitous as they may seem, such containers, storage vessels and urns are, as this book demonstrates, highly significant cultural and historical artefacts that mediate between content and environment, exterior worlds and interior enclosures, local and global, this-worldly and otherworldly realms.The contributors to this volume understand jars not only as household utensils or evidence of human civilizations, but also as artefacts in their own right. Asian jars are culturally and aesthetically defined crafted goods and as objects charged with spiritual meanings and ritual significance. Transformative Jars situates Asian jars in a global context and focuses on relationships between the filling, emptying and re-filling of jars with a variety of contents and meanings through time and throughout space.Transformative Jars brings together an interdisciplinary team of scholars with backgrounds in curating, art history and anthropology to offer perspectives that go beyond archaeological approaches with detailed analyses of a broad range of objects. By looking at jars as things in the hands of makers, users and collectors, this book presents these objects as agents of change in cultures of craftsmanship and consumption.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Anna Grasskamp investigates display practices of the sixteenth and seventeenth century in China and Europe providing an in-depth analysis of the processes through which foreign artifacts and natural objects were framed in early modern collections. While the first two chapters focus on the appropriation of artifacts through the examples of porcelain vessels and scientific instruments in metal mounts, the book's later chapters analyze the staging of foreign nature in Renaissance and Ming collecting through the case of coral. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. Strategien der Wiederverwendung und des Recyclings von Materialien und Objekten aus China verfügen über eine lange Tradition in Kunst, Kunsthandwerk und Design. Das Buch untersucht, wie Künstler*innen, Kunsthandwerker*innen und Designer*innen unerwünschte, benutzte und entsorgte Materialien und Objekte neu bewerten und kreativ weiterverarbeiten. Die Beiträge präsentieren aktuelle Forschung zur materiellen Kultur Chinas - eines der Länder, das in der Produktion und Aufnahme von Abfall weltweit führend ist - im globalen Kontext. Sie betrachten Kunst, Kunsthandwerk und Design aus einer ökokritischen Perspektive und beleuchten den z.T. radikalen Bedeutungswandel von Objekten, die historische und kulturelle Grenzen überschreiten.
