Against the Grain: Wood in Contemporary Art, Craft, and Design
(1 Sep 2012 - 27 Jan 2013)
This
exhibition examines woodworking in contemporary art and engages aspects
of art, craft, and design that have been characterized as
"performative" and critique the traditional art/craft/design
divide. In Against the Grain,
the versatile medium of wood is used to address this issue, exploring
postmodern tendencies including mimicry, assemblage, virtuosity, and
whimsy (with a serious purpose), as well as environmental issues
associated with woodworking. |
