A Comparative Study of Craft Museums as models for Design Museums and Museums of pre-war Japan

这项研究主要是关于南肯辛顿博物馆的历史，今天的维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆，德国主要的Kunstgewerbemuseum，以及战前日本的一些艺术和工艺专家。南肯辛顿博物馆是世界上最早的主要艺术和工艺博物馆之一。它对欧洲和北美的主要工艺博物馆产生了各种影响。它的传统一直延续到今天。1989年在伦敦成立的设计博物馆也是1982年在维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆成立的。南肯辛顿博物馆也对明治日本一些艺术专家的博物馆项目产生了相当大的影响。冈仓Kakuzo Okakura就是其中之一。然而，国家工艺博物馆并没有实现。与威廉·莫里斯有着共同理想的柳宗吉在东京建立了一家私人机构——日本民间工艺博物馆。它成为日本独特工艺运动的中心，这与工艺美术运动在哲学上不同

This study was mainly on the history of the South Kensington Museum, today's Victoria and Albert Museum, major Kunstgewerbemuseum in Germany, and on some art and craft specialists in pre-war JapanThe South Kensington Museum was one of the first major art and craft museums in the world. It exerted various influence on major craft museums in Europe and North America. Its tradition is still maintained today. The Design Museum founded in 1989 in London was also started at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1982The South Kensington Museum also exerted a considerable influence on the museum projects made by some art specialists in Meiji Japan. Kakuzo Okakura was one of them. However, a national craft museum was not realized. Muneyoshi Yanagi who shared an ideal with William Morris instead established a private institution, the Japan Folk-Craft Museum in Tokyo. It became a center of a unique craft movement of Japan that is philosophically different from the Arts and Crafts movement
