Softcover. Pictorial wraps with red, green and white lettering, 230pp., mostly bw illustrations, some in color. "Soetsu Yanagi is often mentioned in books on Japanese art, but this is the first translation in any Western language of a selection of his major writings. The late Bernard Leach, renowned British potter and friend of Mr. Yanagi for fifty years, has clearly transmitted the insights of one of Japan's most important thinkers. The seventy-six plays illustrate objects that underscore the universality of his concepts. The author's profound view of the creative process and his plea for a new artistic freedom within tradition are especialluy timely now when the importance of craft and the handmade object is bieng rediscovered." - from back of book. VG (minimal shelf wear and discoloration along textblock, all pages clear and intact). Nº de ref. del artículo: 181121
