Book First Edition
Condition: Sehr gut. Deutsche Erstausgabe. 144 Seiten mit vielen farbigen Abbildungen. 29,8 x 26,7 cm. Sehr guter Zustand. Mit vereinzelten Anstreichungen. Aus der Einführung : Ist von "japanischem Design" die Rede, so denken die einen an die ästhetische Vollendung der traditionellen angewandten Künste dieses Landes -von der Keramik über Lackarbeiten bis hin zur Architektur -, während andere mit der Bezeichnung die bestechende visuelle Qualität neuerer Produkte verbinden, wie sie nun seit geraumer Zeit aus Japan zu uns gelangen. Diese beiden scheinbar gegenläufigen Aspekte erschweren eine Definition dessen, was japanisches Design ist. So unversöhnlich die beiden Auffassungen von japanischem Design auf den ersten Blick auch scheinen: es gibt eindeutig Zusammenhänge. Obwohl die japanische Kultur in unserem Jahrhundert stark von westlichen Einflüssen geprägt ist, leben viele traditionelle ästhetische Grundsätze fort. Sie schlagen eine Brücke kultureller Kontinuität. J. V Earle schreibt: "An Japan läßt sich heute in einzigartiger Weise beobachten, wie es einem hochentwickelten Industrieland zugleich gelingen konnte, den Westen durch die Aneignung seiner Methoden auf dem Handels- und Industriesektor mit den eigenen Waffen zu schlagen, und dennoch in erstaunlichem Maße seine kulturelle Identität zu bewahren." Im japanischen Alltag ist diese ästhetische Kontinuität bis heute augenfällig - etwa in der kunstvollen Art, in der traditionelle Speisen dargeboten und Kleinigkeiten verpackt werden, oder in den Bereichen japanischen Designs, in denen die individuelle Leistung im Vordergrund steht: der Architektur, der Mode, der Grafik und dem Kunsthandwerk. Dagegen ist ihr Wirken in der Welt der High-Tech-Produkte weit schwerer auszumachen. In der Industrie tritt der einzelne Designer hinter anonyme Konzern-Teams zurück. - Penelope Anne "Penny" Sparke (born 6 November 1948) is a British writer and academic specialising in the history of design. She has been Professor of Design History at Kingston University, London, since 1999, where she is also Director of the Modern Interiors Research Centre. Early life and education: Sparke was born on 6 November 1948 in London, England. She studied French Literature at Sussex University between 1967 and 1971, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree. She remained at Sussex to undertake a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE), which she completed in 1972. She undertook postgraduate research at Brighton Polytechnic, and completed her Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in Design History in 1975. Her doctoral thesis was titled Theory and design in the age of pop. Sparke was awarded an honorary degree from the University for the Creative Arts in 2016. Academic career: From 1975 to 1982, Sparke was a lecturer in design history at Brighton Polytechnic (now the University of Brighton). She was then a lecturer in design history at the Royal College of Art in London between 1982 and 1999. In 1999, she joined Kingston University, London, where she had been appointed Professor of Design History. She additionally served as Dean of its Faculty of Art, Design and Music from 1999 to 2005, and as Pro-Vice Chancellor (Research and Enterprise) from 2005 to 2014. Sparke has written 15 books about Twentieth-Century Design. She has also curated a number of exhibitions, including The Plastics Age at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London in 1990. Her areas of specialism include design history, history of the modern interior, and design and gender. In 2010, Sparke's book The Genius of Design was published to accompany a 5-part BBC Two television series under the same title which was broadcast in 2009. Other work: In 2007, Sparke, worked as a consultant for Pyrex helping with the communication project for their new cookware range designed by George Sowden. She was previously the Course Director of the V&A Museum/Royal College of Art Postgraduate History of Design Programme. Sparke is Chair of the Editorial Board for the Journal of Design History, published b.
