    Swedish Wooden Toys September 18, 2015 Through January 17, 2016 Swedish Wooden Toys September 18, 2015 – January 17, 2016

    Swedish Wooden Toys September 18, 2015 through January 17, 2016 Swedish Wooden Toys September 18, 2015 – January 17, 2016 Swedish Wooden Toys is the first in-depth study of the history of wooden playthings in Sweden from the seventeenth to the twenty-first centuries. Remarkable doll houses, puzzles and games, pull toys, trains, planes, automobiles, and more will be featured in this color- ful exhibition, on view at Bard Graduate Center from September 18, 2015 through January 17, 2016. Although Germany, Japan, and the United States have historically produced and exported the largest numbers of toys worldwide, Sweden has a long and enduring tradition of designing and making wooden toys—from the simplest handmade plaything to more sophisticated forms. This exhibition not only reviews the production of Sweden’s toy industries but also explores the practice of handi- craft (slöjd), the educational value of wooden playthings, and the vision of childhood that Swedish reformers have promoted worldwide. Swedish Wooden Toys is curated by Susan Weber, Bard Graduate Center founder and director, and Amy F. Ogata, professor of art history at the University of Southern California and former professor at Bard Graduate Center. Background Ulf Hanses for Playsam.

    Rare world children Black dolls and their history By: Jolie van der Klis Antique black dolls are rare — I actually wanted to write this line last year, to tell the history of the dolls that we may remember from childhood. At the time, I waived it: I didn't want to throw any fuel on any discussion.*) Meanwhile, even much more has happened on the world stage, the brutal murder of George Floyd, one of the many victims of police prejudice. I could of course postpone the article again, but, as I wondered down-hearted: how many years will I postpone it? *) Note: This refers to an awkward debate in The Netherlands, about the altered tradition of the Dutch Santaclaus and his companion, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwarte_Piet Exhibition in Paris It has been two years since Deborah Neff exhibited her unique collection of antique black dolls in Paris. Handmade from fabric and leather, flour sacks and buttons, by unknown Americans with an African background. These dolls were intended as play dolls: they can sometimes be seen in old family photos. Some are already 180 years old. Photo: press release exhibition at La Maison Rouge, Deborah Neff dolls Caricatures Manufacturers who made black dolls hardly existed at the time; if they were made, the dolls were gross caricatures. Like this doll, that has all the features of a tap dancer from the humiliating Minstrel shows. Photo: Detail undated wooden caricature Doll maker Leo Moss An exception to that rule is doll maker Leo Moss. In the early 1900s he made unique portrait dolls, all modeled after an existing child, the name of which has sometimes been preserved.

The need for innovative product is constant. Independent inventors and designers are an important source for new product ideas, but it can be a challenge for them to break into the industry. An original idea ― one that is fully developed to a point where it is presentable in either complete drawings or prototype format ― can be seen and it can be sold.

  • Dolls and Waste in Italian Children's Literature

    Dolls and Waste in Italian Children's Literature

    Treasure to Trash, Trash to Treasure: Dolls and Waste in Italian Children’s Literature Cristina Mazzoni A growing preoccupation with waste, trash, and obsolescence may be observed in Western societies beginning in the late nineteenth century and continuing throughout the twentieth and into the twenty-first. This phenomenon is largely due to the rapid and intense development of industrialization and consumer culture—the very movement that eventually prompted the birth, in late nineteenth-century Italy, of the industrial production of dolls.1 A reflection of this historical and societal correlation between dolls and trash, confirmed by connections that are also psychological and philosophical, may be read in several literary texts for children written by Italian women between the late nineteenth and the late twentieth centuries. In each of these narratives, the young protagonists own dolls that, though often on the verge of being dumped into the trash bin, play a crucial role in the formation of the protagonist’s identity—a process represented as shaped by both psychological and material forces. The connection made by women between dolls and trash in Italian children’s literature may be read as a culturally specific instance of the wider-ranging reflection on the role of trash in the formation of value, and even of the self.2 Certainly, psychological models of child development have much to teach us about the role dolls play in the formation of young people’s identity.3 While keeping these models in mind, my reading of dolls in Italian children’s litera- ture, however, relies more overtly on philosophical and social reflections on trash, such as those by Italo Calvino, Gay Hawkins, Greg Kennedy, and John Scanlan.

Dissertation, Walden University EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$6.60 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS *Adult Education; *Course Content; Course Descriptions; *Doctoral Theses; Teacher Developed Materials; *Teaching Techniques IDENTIFIERS *Doll Collecting ABSTRACT The author has attempted to organize the many materials to be found on doll collecting into a course which will provide a foundation of know]edge for appreciating and evaluating old dolls. The course has been divided into sessions in which old dolls will be studied by type (images, idols, and early playthings; child, doll, and social realities; wooden dolls; wax dolls; papier mache and composition; china and parian; bisque dolls, cloth dolls; celluloid, metal, leather, and rubber dolls; and doll art in America) in basically the same chronological order in which they achieved popularity in the marketplace (1800-1925). The instructor is urged to employ a variety of teaching strategies in the presentation of the material. A mixture of lecture, slides, show and tell, and much student participation is encouraged. Handouts are provided whichcan be given to students at the end of each session. Brief annotated bibliographies appear at the end of each chapter,as well as a selected bibliography at the end of the course. Thecourse has been designed to introduce the beginning doll collector to the techniques employed in the manufacture of old dolls, to help the novice identify a doll of excellent artistic merit, and to acquaint the collector with some of the better known names in doll making.
