SUMMARY:Dorothy Gill Barnes & Dona Look: Beyond the Trees
DESCRIPTION:(This exhibition runs concurrently with the Wendy Maryuma: The wildLIFE Project exhibition.) \nThe Center presents provocative works by three artists in the Gerry Lenfest Gallery.  Wendy Maruyama: The wildLIFE Project addresses poaching and the illegal ivory trade which has all but decimated the elephant and exemplifies the artist’s shift beyond traditional studio craft and education\, to advocacy.  Elephants are memorialized in monumental form with sculpted heads ranging from 8 to 12 feet in height\, and shrine-like cabinet forms.  All create layers of sensory experience for the viewer as does the use of video\, incense and a bronze bell – set to ring throughout the day. \nWendy Maruyama: The WildLIFE Project is organized by Houston Center for Contemporary Craft and curated by Elizabeth Kozlowski. The exhibition is made possible through generous support by the Windgate Charitable Foundation. \nWildLIFE is complemented by installations from two other renowned artists who work closely with salvaged trees and bark. Dorothy Gill Barnes manipulates the limbs and bark of trees during their growth cycle. In exciting new work\, Dorothy utilizes glass and tree elements to create large scale\, suspended necklace forms. In contrast\, Dona Look weaves and sews white birch bark with silk thread into elegant\, sleek vessel forms.

SUMMARY:CRAFT / FACTURING: AN EVOLUTION OF MAKERS + ENTREPRENEURSHIP FS2016
DESCRIPTION:Furniture Society Conference\, Philadelphia\, PA\nCraft-facturing addresses a contemporary community of Makers who are socially engaged\, collaborative and digitally savvy. New paradigms for making and production\, sharing and distribution are emerging that both support and challenge the more traditional role of the craftsperson in our culture. The 2016 FS conference will frame this moment in Philadelphia’s rich environment as a unique and vital site of past and future crafts activity. \nProgramming at conference aims to offer multiple perspectives. In recent years the programming has blended artist presentations with panel discussions on contemporary topics relevant to the studio furniture community and the conference theme.  Presentations range greatly from technique driven topics to highlighting individual practices\, such as historical or contemporary makers important to the studio furniture field and emerging makers presenting their talented approaches to studio design/build practices. \nIn conjunction with the Furniture Society: \nWorkshop: Seven at the Center: the 2016 Windgate ITE Fellows Collaboration Laboratory\, Thursday\, June 23\, 10:15AM-5:00PMFellows: Amy Forsyth\, Ashley Eriksmoen\, Betty Scarpino\, Katie Hudnall\, Merryll Saylan\, Michaela Crie Stone\, Nucharin Wangphongsawasd; at UArts\, Room J-COS1. The seven Windgate ITE Fellows awarded residencies by The Center for Art in Wood each have a variety of skills and techniques that they employ in their work.

Others use it as an opportunity to break away from what they create in their daily studio practice. Regardless of this choice\, the works exhibited are incredibly varied in material\, form\, and aesthetics. Though small in scale the artworks created for this exhibition are huge in impact. Each work is exhibited in a four-inch plexiglass wall mounted cube. SMALL FAVORS: THINK INSIDE THE BOX will be on view from March 3 – May 27\, 2017 \nConceived of in 2006 by The Clay Studio\, SMALL FAVORS: THINK INSIDE THE BOX grew out The Clay Studio’s efforts to offer accessible\, high-quality artworks that appeal to art enthusiasts of all ages: for seasoned collectors who are challenged for space it allows them to continue to collect work by artists they love. For young art collectors it provides a financially accessible entry point. \nIt is our hope that offering a juried and invitational exhibition of this kind brings to light new and established makers and broadens the audience we reach through the display of these unique works of art.

SUMMARY:Wood\, Revisited
DESCRIPTION:Wood\, Revisited examines the role technology has played in the work of wood artists over the past two decades. This exhibition highlights the nature of wood as a medium by investigating the boundaries of technique such as new technologies\, augmented tool(s)\, and creating work that has a digital or technological look (“tech aesthetic”) and the dialogue between designer\, engineer\, and artist. Wood\, Revisited\, is curated by Anne Carlisle\, with advisor Glenn Adamson\, who was a curator of the Center’s Wood Turning in North America Since 1930 which was held 15 years ago.That exhibition was a national touring exhibition organized with the Yale University Art Gallery and was the first show to comprehensively map directions in the field of lathe-turned wood. Wood\, Revisited is echoing that exhibition in manifold ways. At that time\, Glenn Adamson was a Yale graduate student. Anne Carlisle\, like Glenn is a graduate student and is working on her a MA at the Bard Graduate Center. \nPARTICIPATING ARTISTS AND STUDIOS: Ahmed ElHusseiny\, AE Superlab; A. White Workshop; Jérôme Blanc; Wendell Castle; Hunt Clark; Sebastian Errazuriz; Dewey Garrett; Iftah Geva; Cha Jongrye; Yuri Kobayashi; Christopher Kurtz; Joris Laarman; Bud Latven; Tom Loeser; David Nosanchuk; Ontwerpduo; Mike Rea; Gabriel Schama; Adrien Segal; Elisa Strozyk; Klara Varosy
