Synopsis
It may be a top tourist destination, but there is far more to Ibiza than nightclubs and beaches. Showcasing the wealth of creative talent on the island, this captivating book shines a bright Balearic light on some of Ibiza's most inspirational artists and makers, on their products and services, and their studios and homes. Also featuring a historical overview of Ibizan art and architecture, Made in Ibiza is a richly illustrated celebration of a vibrant creative community that plays a vital role in maintaining the unique character of the 'White Island'., Made in Ibiza is both a visual treatand a fitting celebration of a dynamic creative scene that contributes so muchto the vitality of this unique Mediterranean island. It may be a top tourist destination, but - as this captivating new bookshows - there is far more to Ibiza than nightclubs and beaches. The island hasbeen at the center of Mediterranean life since the arrival of the Phoeniciansalmost 3000 years ago. Over the centuries, other great civilizations left theirmark on this strategic trading post, and in the 20th century hippies and bohemiansfamously found in Ibiza a refuge from conformity. To the present day, theisland continues to attract artists and craftspeople from around the world. Togetherwith native Ibizans who embrace the traditions of their forebears, theseforeign-born inhabitants form a vibrant creative community that plays a vitalrole in maintaining the unique character of the 'White Island'. This book showcases the wealth of creative talent in Ibiza today. It shinesa bright Balearic light on some of the island's most inspirational artists and makers,on their products and services, and on their studios and homes. This is a place ofgreat natural beauty, but - as Liam Aldous discusses in his introduction - thereare inherent limitations to making things work. Geographic isolation, a lack ofindustry, and a scarcity of materials are perennial difficulties. However, ratherthan impeding creativity, such challenges fuel ingenuity. As Aldous says, 'InIbiza, where life's creative canvas often feels unfettered and fresh, creatingart, architecture or artisanal goods can also be an opportunity.' The main part of the book is arranged into chapters grouping similartypes of products or areas of expertise. More than 35 enterprises are featured,ranging from Blakstad Design, founded in 1967 and now Ibiza's most prestigious architecturalpractice; Majoral, whose jewelry is sold in boutiques across Europe and theUnited States; to Ses Cabretes, a goat farm and cheese producer; and Ladio Ceramics,inspired by the island's pottery tradition and the nature that surrounds Laurade Grinyo's secluded studio. Specially commissioned photography by Ana Lui andSalva López captures the artisans at work, the materials, and the finished products,while concise descriptions are provided by Aldous, Maya Boyd, Clare Dowdy, andChris English. The book concludes with a series of insightful essays by MartinDavies on the island's cultural history. Perfect for anyone enthralled by the beautyof Ibiza.
