Willow Talk, by Emma Crichton-Miller, appeared in the July-August 2009 issue of Crafts magazine. http://www.craftscouncil.org.uk/crafts-magazine/latest-issue. In it Crichton-Miller offers a positive prognosis for the art of basketry in the U.K.. The author tracks the growing appreciation in the U.K. for basketry as an art form. She compares artists like Ed Rossbach and John McQueen in the U.S., Markku Kosonen in Finland and Shouchiko Tanabe of Japan, with artists like Lizzie Farey of the U.K., Joe Hogan of Ireland and Dail Behennah and Mary Butcher of the U.K., for whom recognition has been more recently won. She lists a series of important exhibition, concluding that basketry in the U.K. is poised "to join the contemporary conversation."
