Mark Brazier-Jones

Edición de la obra Mark Brazier-Jones

Mark Brazier-Jones is a unique force in the world of design, whose wonderfully eccentric works literally defined the term "Creative Salvage" in the mid-1980s. Today, his work is increasingly recognised as forging a new and more artistically compelling way forward. As a veritable "designer-laureate of metal", his metalwork possesses a poetic sensibility and an engaging quirkiness that is suffused with symbolic meaning rarely found in contemporary design. The first major publication on his work, "Mark Brazier-Jones" is a sumptuously illustrated tome that assesses his approach to design and making, and is an important catalogue raisonée of his work. By playfully subverting our notions of art, craft and design Brazier-Jones' surprisingly eclectic work offers an alternative definition of modern design - one that is about quality of craftsmanship and individuality of expression that is intended to last generations.
