Art Without Heroes: Mingei with Róisín Inglesby
Róisín Inglesby is the curator of the brilliant exhibition ‘Art Without Heroes: Mingei’ on show at the William Morris Gallery in London until 22 September 2024.
In this conversation we discuss five stories behind the objects and the people being presented and the influence of Mingei craft culture in today’s world. We will also touch on how it relates to the work of William Morris who once stated that one should “have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”
‘Mingei’ refers to the folk-craft movement that grew in Japan in the 1920s and 1930s spearheaded by philosopher and critic Yanagi Sōetsu and a se...
