His last great chair should end up going to our beloved president Trump.
Crafts, ie hard-skills, will become important again when foreign mass-production goods no longer price out domestic work.
Thank you for sharing
I started doing this with trees and bushes when they started coming back in... I love it
Sound is terrible very ecco hard touch derstand
Fabulous! ❤🎉🎉🎉
We CANNOT lose these cultures! Keep fighting! ❤
As a German miniaturist for 30 years I am thrilled by the quality of the shown pieces, but I am also in aw about the prices !
I am rather moved. The film shows very well how quilts have played an important role in the story of the USA, serving as powerful means of expression, yet practical items. The are rich with stories, reflecting the lives of those who made them. Also, it's incredible to see how this tradition continues today, with contemporary artists bringing their perspectives. These quilts are not just pieces of art; they are important reminders of history and heritage. The film does a wonderful job.
I'm very inspired by Syd Carpenter's perspective. Her mention about not feeling like a master craftsperson because she is constantly learning is a refreshing reminder that even the most skilled artists continually evolve. She clearly has a wealth of knowledge and experience and her work is stunning and unique. I am particularly interested in the stories behind each piece and would love to learn more about her inspirations. Truly an inspiring artist with a lot to say, both through her words and her work.
Hello Son, Jimmy is the good one
Your baskets are beautiful, thank you so much for sharing.
Beautiful work
World peace thru art! What a concept. Positive politics.
How can I see more of his work?
Fantastic.
das ist sehr schöne Kunst, ich komme aus Deutschland und liebe Amerikanische Folkart, besondes Patchwork Quilts , Crazy und Amish Quilts , können Sie darüber ein weiteres video machen ,bitte vielen dank
WOW 🤯 ❤
"I started making furniture a long time ago, but it never occurred to me that, really in a way, that people make furniture, you know, I didn’t think anybody did this" = most European, White Male sentence ever
I so admire those who have achieved so much in the world of glass art. Thanks, these pieces are so beautiful,
🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
What a marvelous Series....this is my third one....Thank you so much.
Absolutely wonderful thank you so much for sharing this video! The pieces are marvelous!
Swore I saw this guys doc somewhere now I can't find it anywhere legit
I love your music. I’m glad you are keeping it alive. My roots are French Canadian so similar music.😊❤
Nice nod to Thomas Dambo and his giant trolls made from pallet wood. He also made many fanciful sculptures from plastic trash as part of large, festive event spaces in his native Denmark. I love Calder's work!
💛💛💛
Please listen to the beautifully stated comments at 5:35! These 2 men of 2 different age groups stated very powerful & meaningful sentiments!! I had to stop & replay it 3 times!! What an awesome video🤗. I was thinking of going this year, but having now seen it in this video, I’m making plans to attend next year 2025!!
When he said "I think this is what world peace looks like," I just started to cry. The art and the people are so beautiful. Many thanks for sharing this wonderful video.
That “this is what world peace looks like” comment totally blew me away as well. These people are just as beautiful as the items they’re creating, and each one has their personal story. Crafters are the most authentic and compassionate souls that there are.
Beautiful items… people are so creative and talented… art and music and smiles are universal… build bridges not walls. 🌎🕊️ 🌜🌞🌛
Thanks a lot to open my mind . Sylvie from France
WOW
Just “wow” am in awe of his skill and craftsmanship. His eye for colour and detail. What an honour it would be to wear his art. So much soul and story. Deeply connected to nature and his ancestry. I have even more appreciation for the artisan jewellers now - thank you for this video
cool
😍
🤩
Incredible.
Wow, wow, wow! ❤️
I had the privilege of taking a tour of his lovely home and seeing these pieces in person. What a fantastic craftmans and awesome person. Mark is a treasure!
This charming woman is a truly fabulous American artist.
This is not really Art
Too making wonderful ideas, good to see video
Minnesota is incredibly unique! From the Shores of Lake Superior to the Prairie Land, the Bluff Country and the urban centers so many amazing things to be inspired!
I know you as an artist and an instigator for other artists. You make beautiful ideas and also have a long history of helping others find their path toward the same goal. I count myself as someone fortunate enough to intersect your orbit as it has had a lasting affect on my trajectory.
I have deep acadian roots dating to 1635. Acadian (Cajun) culture is dear to my heart. This music draws tears from me every time I hear it. A very special congratulation to Ann Savoy for being such a true Cajun.
Gorgeous work
Interesting...
You are absolutely amazing!!! ❤
How can you watch this and not like it?! Give it a thumbs up please!
