As Georges Braque once said, \"the vase gives form to emptiness\": ever since the earliest human civilizations, this object has had a purpose that is greater than its function and it perennially seeks experimentation in shape and expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003e1000 Vases (Bilingual edition)\u003c\/em\u003e presented in this book are an eloquent demonstration of this. They come from 35 different countries and more than 80% have been made by women or independent designers and artists born between 1988 and 1993.
