From nothing more than a chunk of copper or sheet metal, artists here have spent centuries creating both useful and decorative copper items, with specially made hand tools and machinery. The richness of the work has undergone a marked improvement in design, materials, and finish during the second half of the twentieth century. Hundreds of copper items from the Museo Nacional de Cobre illustrate the art's evolution. 393 colorful photographs, a historical perspective, list and introductions to 540 copper artists, and detailed descriptions combine in this impressive reference. Be inspired to visit Mexico's Michoacan state and Santa Clara del Cobre, to meet the artists in their workshops.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 279mmItem Weight: 957gAuthor: Sandy BaumGenre: Architecture & AntiquesType: Antiques & Collectables by SubjectRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
