The Power of Lace - Konstantina Hlaváčková

Krajka - objekt - oděv / Lace-Art-Garment 1950-2020 Krajka je dnes považována za víceméně okrajový umělecký žánr. Přesto si udržuje výlučnou úlohu průvodce novověkých společenských osudů evropského člověka. Od renesance do počátku 20. století její výroba souvisela výhradně s náročným módním oděvem. Specifické období v oboru krajky nastalo v nově vzniklém československém státě ve 20. letech 20. století, kdy se textilní tvorba obecně stala součástí procesu avantgardní kulturní ideologie. Úspěšný rozvoj textilních uměleckých oborů vedený myšlenkou syntézy moderního životního stylu v souladu s národní tradicí pokračoval do konce 30. let. Po druhé světové válce se u nás, stejně jako ve světě, textilní umění přibližovalo umění volnému. Od konce 50. let se začalo radikálně měnit i pojetí krajky. Zcela opustila tradiční funkci a stala se trojrozměrným monumentálním dílem. Nový, umělecky svobodný pohled na krajku, spojený s dokonalou znalostí klasických technik, podnítil v Československu bohatou tvorbu tří generací výtvarnic. Jejich přínos světovému vývoji potvrdila ocenění získaná na mnoha mezinárodních výstavách. Katalog vydalo Uměleckoprůmyslové museum v Praze v roce 2022 ke stejnojmenné výstavě konané v UPM od 19. května do 11. září 2022 u příležitosti 26.

The Snettisham Hoards

For over 60 years, spectacular discoveries have been made on a wooded hillside at Snettisham, overlooking the northwest Norfolk coast, close to Hunstanton. The location of the discoveries, at Ken Hill, is known as the ‘gold field’ because of the large number of gold and silver alloy neck-rings (‘torcs’) and coins recovered from the site. Known as the ‘Snettisham Treasure’, these objects represent one of the largest collections of prehistoric precious metal objects ever discovered, and one of the largest concentrations of Celtic art. The objects were found in at least 14 separate hoards buried between 150 BC and AD 100 – spanning the late Iron Age and early Roman periods, but with a peak of activity during the late Iron Age.The objects from Snettisham are widely known, but the site has never been fully published. This book is the first comprehensive account of the discoveries and excavations at the site and presents a full catalogue of the finds.
