New trends in studio furniture are on display in this exhibition of fifteen young artists. The artists, recent graduates of notable furniture programs, merge the traditions of studio furniture--fine craftsmanship and limited production--with experimental materials and concepts. The result is a convergence of art and design in furniture that prompts reconsideration of our relationships with everyday objects. Curated by Dean Wilson, head of the furniture design program at MCAD, and featuring a fully illustrated catalog with an essay by Edward Cooke Jr., professor of American decorative arts at Yale University.
