Each morning this week at WhiteHouse.gov , you’ll find a guest post from a senior advisor talking about the progress the Administration had made in a particular area

When we are lucky enough to have sunshine in these winter months, it shouldn’t be wasted. And snowy sunshine seems to be abundant at the moment. The snowy sunlight makes pretty things so much easier to see and I couldn’t resist our dish of marbles! We’ve had some marbles in a dish in the bedroom for ages that used to be mine as a kid but late this summer, we went to one of the last car boot sales of the year and bought a few more.

Illustration: Duncan Grant rug design 1913 Rug design may not immediately come to mind when thinking of the British twentieth century fine artist Duncan Grant, but he was involved, admittedly sometimes in an often minimal and oblique way, with the Omega Workshops project of Roger Fry.

Check out Amir Lyles’ cartoon The Young Master , a multi-culti mashup that reflects the ways that hip-hop culture has incorporated Japanese martial arts and manga and Zen into American street belligerence. Lyles adds his own Rastafarian ideas, values and imagery and voila, let the new age begin. The video also incorporates some of the charm of The Little Mermaid and the mischievousness of early Mickey Mouse.

Since 2005, when the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Reports were published and perhaps even before, the textile sector has concerned itself with the need to nurture and protect the earth’s resources. Since 2007, when the Ethical Fashionweek was staged, this has also been reflected in the trends. The Futurustic trend statement makes this connection and cleverly highlights aspects of authenticity and ecological considerations

Illustration: Pan Pipes textile design by Harry Napper 1890s Harry Napper was probably one of the most influential designers connected with the prodigious and to some extent prestigious output of the London retail outlet Liberty. Although Napper supplied a number of textile designs, he was also involved in the design of carpets and rugs, furniture and metalwork, much of it for Liberty.

In a Friday post about Byron Kim’s Synecdoche (1991-present), I noted the work’s intellectual roots in America’s 1980s and 1990s debates about multiculturalism. The United States wasn’t the only country to have a national conversation about multiculturalism in those years and it wasn’t just Kim who used tried-and-true art strategies to engage with that discourse: Great Britain had its own debate about multiculturalism and what it meant for the British

Illustration: Hindoo Ornament from Owen Jones The Grammar of Ornament 1856 Owen Jones started his chapter on Hindoo Ornament in his groundbreaking The Grammar of Ornament first published in 1856, with an apology for the poor record that Britain had of early Indian architectural and ornamental decoration. He surmised rightly, that at some point in the future the British would have as large a collection and more importantly, the same level of understanding of Indian art and design, as they were beginning to achieve with that of Ancient Egypt for example

Did you know that the garnet was named after a fruit? The ancient Greeks thought that garnets looked like the seeds of the pomegranate – thus, garnet! In the Bible, garnet is mentioned fairly often, usually called carbuncle. The Victorians were especially fond of garnets and mixed them often with pearls, opals, coral, cameos, and one of my favorite combinations, turquoise
