Discussion board post 100 words

In chapter 5, Grazian explains the work of Howard S. Becker (1982) who observed that we often distinguish between two kinds of cultural creativity closely identified with one another; arts and crafts. Arts and crafts, according to Becker, both require aesthetic skill and judgement, with art being a production of one’s individuality, creativity, and unique vision, and craft being a service for a paying client or consumer. However, it is further argued that these activities are different only because they are infused with alternative meanings shaped by their cultural context, and in some cases, craft becomes art and art becomes craft.

For this discussion, please give an example of either “craft becoming art” or “art becoming craft” and provide it here (Grazian gives quite a few examples – feel free to use google or youtube to find other examples and provide links/photos, or provide an example from something you’ve seen or experienced – in a museum or commercial, perhaps). Provide an explanation of how your example is illustrative of the concept you chose.
