Dear fellow SHERA members, I am working on a project on the intersection of industrial design and folk arts in socialist-era Slovenia. I am aware of works that address the folk arts in former Yugoslavia and Eastern Europe; the political foundations of modern design in the former Yugoslavia; and style and socialism in the broader region. Local journals of the period include very interesting articles on state-sponsored cottage industries, which flourished in Slovenia from the early 1950s forward. I am curious whether anyone can point me to work on such cottage industries in the region, and on other intersections of state-sponsored corporations or similar entities with folk traditions and arts. I also welcome suggestions more broadly on literature on the intersection of industrial design and traditional or folk arts. Thank you, Veronica Aplenc Veronica E.
