Brève description / annotation

Between heritage and innovation, artistic craftsmanship remains a field in constant redefinition. Nurtured by deep-rooted traditions, techniques, materials, and imagination, the arts and crafts are currently undergoing profound changes : socio-economic shifts, digital demands, ecological transition, and evolving public perceptions. This book examines the key trends shaping the sector and its future. It highlights multiple visions of craftsmanship and reveals the plurality of definitions, practices, and cultures that drive it. Researchers, artists, designers, institutions, and artisans contribute analyses, feedback, and perspectives on three major themes : Taxonomies, dialogues, disparities; Sustainability, economy, market; Perspective, transmission, training. This volume opens up a critical and sensitive space, where ancient gestures meet contemporary challenges, and where design becomes a tool for observing, understanding, and accompanying change.
