Reseña: New Territories examines creative practices in todays globalized world in which disciplines overlap more than ever before. Looking in particular at countries such as Brazil Cuba Panama Columbia Mexico El Salvador Puerto Rico Venezuela and Chile this volume discusses the ways in which craft art and design have transcended their former identities. Today artists in these fields may address issues of not only commodification and mass production but also social concerns of urbanization displacement housing and sustainability. Including the work of more than 100 artists designers/design studios and artisans New Territories sets out to explore the present state of design--much of which has emerged from interfaces between manufacturers folk artisans indigenous artists and designers--and its future.
