    Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 10 (2017 10) 1507-1524 ~ ~ ~ УДК 7.05 Scientific Modelling of Decorative and Applied Arts of the Indigenous Small-Numbered Peoples of the Krasnoyarsk Territory: Current State and Ways of Effective Development Maria A. Kolesnik and Alexandra A. Sitnikova* Siberian Federal University 79 Svobodny, Krasnoyarsk, 660041, Russia Received 01.06.2017, received in revised form 02.10.2017, accepted 09.10.2017 The article presents a scientific model of the traditional functioning of the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous peoples of the Krasnoyarsk Territory (Krai). This is an “ecological model”, since it implies careful and economical use of all natural resources being extracted. The current state of the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous small-numbered peoples of the Krasnoyarsk Territory North is described by a scientific model, which is perceived as a “model of symbolic consumption”. The authors analyzed main types of souvenirs produced by the indigenous minorities of the North of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, namely beadwork, bone carving works, festival clothes, taxidermy items, shaman attributes, doll amulets, etc. The researchers offered a scientific model of ways to develop the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous small-numbered peoples the Krasnoyarsk Territory North. These include the improvement of the “symbolic consumption” system first at the level of souvenir production, then at the level of creating ethnocultural villages and ethnic parks, and, finally, at the level of creating contemporary art works to be understandable and interesting internationally. Keywords: decorative and applied arts, the indigenous small-numbered peoples, souvenirs of the indigenous peoples of the North, ethnic park, development models for the decorative and applied arts of the indigenous peoples of the North.

  • WCC APR South Pacific Report 2017-2018 Vice President WCC APR South Pacific Lindy Joubert [email protected]
    WCC APR South Pacific Report 2017-2018 Vice President WCC APR South Pacific Lindy Joubert [email protected] The WCC APR South Pacific region is an area of huge cultural diversity composed of three major island groups, each one with several thousand islands containing their own environmental and cultural characteristics. Communication across the Pacific is difficult and finding information on the crafts in Pacific countries is not easy. Australia and New Zealand continue to lead the way with a good emphasis on the crafts and maintaining healthy crafts climates. Australia Craft artisans, craft NGOs and craft business organisations continue to flourish and survive in spite of the constant financial restraints due to lack of support from a government funding agency. As the World Craft Council Australia reported: While we might celebrate the return of funds to the Australia Council, it is only to find that much of it is going to ballet and opera. Crafts desperately needs a strong voice to support the many who can use support to make works of lasting beauty to enhance the lives of all Australians.22 March 2017 Thanks to the formation of the World Craft Council Australia under the Immediate Past- President Marian Hosking, alongside the excellent communication management by Kevin Murray and the active and enthusiastic Board. WoCCAis growing and building a solid network of outstanding crafts people in every state. The newly elected President/Chair is Jude van der Merwe and we all welcome her extensive experience in the Australian crafts. Some news from members: Jude van der Merwe,President / Chair, World Craft Council Australia.WoCCA Jude reports that in Western Australia, she is developing a major exhibition to be held at the Art Gallery of Western Australiafeaturing the works of significant craft artists from the Indian Ocean Rim.

  • RECONSIDERING TUSK and BONE: an ANALYSIS of the FORMS, FUNCTIONS and PERCEPTIONS of ANGLO-SAXON IVORIES, C.500-1066 Three Volumes, Vol
    RECONSIDERING TUSK AND BONE: AN ANALYSIS OF THE FORMS, FUNCTIONS AND PERCEPTIONS OF ANGLO-SAXON IVORIES, c.500-1066 Three Volumes, Vol. I Lyndsey Smith, BA MA PhD University of York History of Art September 2015 Abstract It is the purpose of this thesis to reconsider the ivories of early medieval England with an in-depth analysis drawing on various disciplinary approaches. The last extensive published scholarly work on these ivories was that produced over forty years ago by John Beckwith (Ivory Carvings in Early Medieval England, 1972). Since then there has been little in the way of scholarly investigation of these objects beyond occasional studies of individual ivories in the form of articles or as entries in catalogues of museum collections – or even more rarely, as a passing mention within monographs on Anglo-Saxon art in general. While Beckwith’s publication was, by comparison, comprehensive in its coverage, there were, nevertheless, some ivories that were not included – in some cases because they have come to light since 1972. Generally speaking, however, the scholarly trend has been to consider the ivories of Anglo-Saxon England only in relation to continental workshops (namely, Carolingian, Merovingian or Italian centres of production), and most discussions of them has been from a formalist art historical point of view, concentrating on style rather than materiality or iconography. Such approaches fail to acknowledge the full potential of the ivories. To remedy this situation, this thesis will situate the publication and collection of Anglo-Saxon ivories between 1850-2015 as a means of explaining the nature of the scholarship as it exists today.

  • Stone Sculpture and Carving
    Early Britain The Anglo-Saxons lived in Britain from the 5th century – so around AD 400. The term relates to people from mainly the Germanic areas of Europe, who migrated to Britain after Roman rule came to an end, and lived amongst the people already living in Britain. The Anglo-Saxons were highly skilled craftsmen and women who created jewellery, ceramics, sculptures and wall paintings. Metalwork Craft The Anglo-Saxons created buckles, jewellery and purse fittings which were made from gold, silver and bronze. The metal was beaten and engraved, often with dots and dashes representing the fur of animals. Gemstones like garnet were inlaid into the metal. Niello was used to add letters and symbols to the engraved items. Niello was a black paste made from copper, sulphur, silver and lead. It was added to the metal and then fired – heated to a very high temperature – to set the paste. The Fuller Broch – 9th century Anglo-Saxon The Great Buckle In 1939, an Anglo-Saxon burial site was discovered in Sutton Hoo, Suffolk. It consisted of a buried ship containing objects of incredible historical and archaeological importance. This buckle, known as The Great Buckle, was part of the hoard. Its plate is hollow and has a hinge at the back. This reveals a secret chamber which might have contained a religious relic. The engraving is intricate and inlaid with niello. Brooches Powerful Saxons could afford decorative brooches like this one. They would have been used to hold a cloak around the owner’s shoulders. Brooches like this were often made from bronze and decorated or inlaid with silver, gold or precious stones.
