    MOVEMENT

    CABANTING, LYNETTE
    ARTS and CRAFTS
    MOVEMENT
    -The Arts and Crafts movement was an international trend in the decorative and fine
    arts that began in Britain and flourished in Europe and North America between about
    1880 and 1920, emerging in Japan in the 1920s as the Mingei movement.
    -The Arts & Crafts aesthetic varied greatly depending on the media and location
    involved, but it was influenced most prominently by both the imagery of nature and
    the forms of medieval art, particularly the Gothic style, which enjoyed a revival in
    Europe and North America during the mid-19th century.
    -It stood for traditional craftsmanship using simple forms, and often used medieval,
    romantic, or folk styles of decoration.
    -It advocated economic and social reform and was essentially anti-industrial.
    -It had a strong influence on the arts in Europe until it was displaced by Modernism in
    the 1930s, and its influence continued among craft makers, designers, and town
    planners long afterwards.
    Difference between Arts and Craft and Art
    -Noveau
    Arts and craft movement was heavily influenced by nature, but the motifs were more
    rectilinear –not at all the extreme curves of Art Noveau. Extensive used of wood is common
    and almost always left with a natural finish, decorative details were handmade,from vases
    to stained glass. On the other hand Art Noveau used a finely crafted metal and wood.
    - Art Nouveau emphasize on a romantic, exaggerated portrayal, hailing from styles such as
    baroque and rococo design. Art Nouveau artistry tends to feature elaboration on a natural
    form. Vines and flowers are often elaborately detailed with curlicues and flourishes. While in
    Arts and Crafts, they might be created either as realistic or elegantly
    simplified.
    -Lead by artist William Morris, as inspired by the
    writings of Augustus Pugin and John Ruskin
    -Started when Morris and fellow artist, Edward
    Burne-Jones established a group that they called
    as the Birmingham Set. They were joined by their
    friends at the University of Oxford and Pembroke
    College
    -Aside from paintings and artworks, the Arts and
    Crafts Movement has strong links with interior
    design and architecture. This is because William
    Morris decided to get into architecture after
    establishing the movement. Burne-Jones, on the
    other hand, remained a painter.
    -The simplicity of the Arts and Crafts movement
    has inspired several other art groups like Neo
    Plasticism, Art Nouveau, and the Bauhaus style.
    It is also regarded to be the prelude to the
    Modernism art movement.
    -What this movement emphasizes on is the
    aesthetic designs and decorations that strongly
    oppose machine production art.
    -The usual subjects of paintings and creations
    under this art movement include flora and fauna,
    domestic traditions, and the British countryside.
    -This movement stood for craftsmen and
    designers who work by hand. Morris even went
    ahead to advocate for these free craftspeople
    who took pleasure in doing manual work.
