SynopsisExotica is the companion to the exhibition of the same name held at the Jason Jacques Gallery, New York, fall 2010. This book brings together a compelling selection of objects that vividly illustrate concepts of the exotic in European decorativearts between 1875 and 1925. Whether influenced by cultures distant in time or place, forms and decorations were made new again in the hands of the creative men and women of an era in which nationalism, modernity, and the ascendancy ofhandcraftsmanship defeated the forces of false refinement and shoddy manufacture. This book includes stunning color photographs and scholarly essays that explore Classical, Asian, Islamic, andMedieval influences, along with a special section on T.A.C. Colenbrander, an exceptional Dutch designer. Historians, collectors, and newcomers alike will enjoy this armchair voyage through a collectionthat has been twenty years in the makingand continues to grow.166 full page color illustrations
