Ce catalogue accompagne une exposition organisée par le Vitra Design Museum, le Milwaukee Art Museum et l'Institute of Contemporary Art Philadelphia. Fondée au XVIIIe siècle, la communauté Shaker était une église libre qui embrassait les principes de l'égalité sociale, de la propriété communautaire et du pacifisme, considérant le travail et le design comme des expressions de leur foi. Les objets fonctionnels et radicalement simples des Shakers ont profondément influencé le design moderne, inspirant des générations d'artistes, d'architectes et de designers jusqu'à nos jours. The Shakers : A World in the Making accompagne l'exposition éponyme, conçue par le studio milanais Formafantasma, qui présentera une large gamme de meubles, d'architecture, d'outils et de produits commerciaux de la marque. Les œuvres d'artistes et de designers contemporains, dont Chris Halstrøm, Christien Meindertsma et Kameelah Janan Rasheed, entrent en dialogue avec les expositions historiques, reflétant la pertinence durable des Shakers. La publication comprend un riche éventail d'essais thématiques contextualisant les Shakers dans le canon plus large du design, de l'architecture et de l'art, des études détaillées d'expositions sélectionnées ainsi que des contributions personnelles de l'artiste contributeur. La photographie d'objets et d'architecture contemporaine offre une perspective nouvelle sur l'une des expériences collectives les plus convaincantes de ces derniers siècles.

An examination of the lasting impact of the Shaker legacy as well as the more unexpected facets of their production, ideology and way of life from a contemporary perspective.
The Shakers are by far the longest-lived American utopian experiment. Founded by Mother Ann Lee, who emigrated from Manchester, UK to New York in 1774, the Society governed eighteen separate communities from Kentucky to Maine in 1840, counting 4.000 to 6.000 members total.

Hardback. Etat : New. The Shakers: A World in the Making aims to both examine the lasting impact of the Shaker legacy as well as the more unexpected facets of their production, ideology and way of life from a contemporary perspective. Established in the 18th century, the Shakers were a free church that embraced principles of social equality, communal property and pacifism, viewing labour and design as expressions of their faith. The Shakers' radically simple, functional objects have had a profound influence on modern design, inspiring generations of artists, architects and designers up to the present day. The Shakers: A World in the Making accompanies the eponymous exhibition - designed by the Milan-based studio Formafantasma - which will showcase a wide range of Shaker furniture, architecture, tools and commercial goods. Works by contemporary artists and designers enter in dialogue with the historic exhibits, reflecting on the Shakers' enduring relevance. The publication includes a rich array of thematic essays contextualizing the Shakers within the wider design, architecture and art canon, detailed studies of selected exhibits as well as personal contributions by the participating artist. Contemporary object and architectural photography offers a fresh perspective on one of the most compelling communal experiments of recent centuries.
