Earth Fire Iron
We’re working on a new book coming out this September.
Earth, Fire, Iron is a handbook about contemporary blacksmithing inspired by the outstanding artist blacksmith, Alan Evans (1952–2023). With contributions from leading voices in the artist blacksmith community, it provides an overview from Evans’ roots in the Cotswold Arts and Crafts movement to exciting developments in the craft since the 1980s. The book includes an overview of the important and pioneering Artist Blacksmithing course at Hereford College of Arts. Earth, Fire, Iron will inspire and assist both students and established makers and open everyone’s eyes to the potential of this elemental craft.
There will be an accompanying exhibition at the Museum in the Park, Stroud. Details to follow.
