Celebrating Decorative Arts & Design! Célébrons les arts décoratifs et du design ! |
Published twice a year, Ornamentum is the only magazine devoted to exploring the large spectrum of decorative arts, material culture and design in Canada. From furniture and furnishings, ceramics, glass, metalwork, graphics, and textiles through to aspects of architecture, industrial, interior and landscape design, the decorative arts encompass craft and the aesthetics of the everyday. Within this expansive umbrella, Ornamentum provides a forum for discussion of the creative context and talent through which the decorative arts are born, and critically addresses the aesthetics and meanings of objects in terms of historic precedent, tradition and innovation. Written for a broad readership and extensively illustrated, Ornamentum celebrates material culture in all its forms and expressions. Ask for a copy of the magazine by name at a retailer, museum or gallery near you! See list HERE Top Image: How Are You (detail), by Marian Bantjes. Ballpoint pen/digital, March 2006.
