Contemporary Thinking about the Art and Craft Movement in England and America

英国“艺术与手工艺运动“的主要宗旨,是提倡艺术个性和艺术为大众服务。这种愿望并没有在英国很好地实现,但是其艺术思想经过艺术家的改造,在美国结出了丰硕之果。反思英美两国的“艺术与手工艺运动”,对我们当前的大审美经济的发展有很好的借鉴作用。变“中国制造”为“中国设计”,使艺术为大众日常生活服务是艺术设计者当下应当思考的主题之一。

Changing'made in Ch-ina 'into'designed in China','survival of the fittest'into'su rvival of the most beautiful'and making the art serve the masses are the subjects that the designers should thin k over.
