Résumé

Résumé : In a globalized world, heritage crafts hold unique cultural value. Bahrain has seen a craft revival by fostering collaboration in craft, art, and design, creating new opportunities for creativity. As a coastal culture, Bahrain produces maritime crafts like boats, sailors' garments, and fishing nets. Its freshwater resources support palm groves and rush plants for basketry and home furnishings. Natural resources like clay and gypsum contribute to pottery and architectural carvings, while a rich history of metalworking and goldsmithing yields intricate jewelry and ceremonial items. This volume, with informative text and original photography, showcases Bahrain's diverse handicrafts, celebrating its cultural heritage and inspiring future artisans globally.
Biographie : Sheikha Mariam Hisham Al Khalifa is a cultural researcher with a specialization in traditional fashion and textiles who has spent ten years studying and collecting craft objects.

After finishing school, Harald Gottschalk met the acclaimed French photographer Robert Doisneau and began to fulfill his childhood dream to become a photographer.

Gottschalk has participated in more than sixty solo and collective exhibitions in France and abroad, including the French National Library, Mois de la Photo, European Heritage Days, Salon d’Automne and Paris Photo. Parallel to his personal work, he has photographed many books for Assouline and collaborates on prestigious projects with international brands.
