Artists like to meet each other!: The Arts and Crafts Movement
The Arts and Crafts Movement emerged in Britain at the end of XIX Century. As a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, artists, thinkers and writers met to aadvocate truth to materials, creativity, traditional craftsmanship against serial production and a life in harmony with nature. Many of them took part in artists communities. The most famous ones were William Morris, Charles Robert Ashbee, T. J. Cobden Sanderson, Walter Crane, Phoebe Anna Traquair, Herbert Tudor Buckland, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Christopher Dresser, Edwin Lutyens, Ernest Gimson, Gustav Stickley y los artistas del movimiento prerrafaelita.
