SUMMARY:Merryll Saylan: This is Your Life
DESCRIPTION:Merryll Saylan: This is Your Life\nCurated by Glenn Adamson\nNovember 2\, 2018 – January 19\, 2019\nVisit the online gallery here. \nThe Center for Art in Wood is pleased to present the work of renowned wood artist Merryll Saylan in an exhibition celebrating the timeline of her career. When she began turning in the 1970s\, Saylan was one of few women in the craft field. While her contemporaries gravitated toward furniture-making and the use of exotic woods\, Saylan—who came from a background in modern and contemporary design—focused on surface\, using wood as a blank canvas for compositions in color and texture. Her experiments with stains\, pigments\, texture\, and auto body finishes represented a new approach in the field\, with connections to abstract painting. \nGuest Curator Glenn Adamson writes that Saylan’s work draws “sometimes humorously\, sometimes poignantly—from the world of everyday things….her objects dwell right in that interesting space between unremarkable normalcy and aesthetic transcendence\, which we all inhabit all the time.” \n \nEVENTS\nCraftNOW Symposium | Nov 2 | 11 AM – 7 PM | University of the Arts Gershman Hall\, 401 S. Broad St. Free and open to the public. Lecture by Merryll Saylan and Glenn Adamson at 1 PM \nFirst Fridays | Nov 2\, Dec 9\, Jan 4 | 5 – 8 PM. Opening reception on Nov 2 | 6 – 8 PM \nGallery talk with Merryll Saylan and Artistic Director Jennifer-Navva Milliken | Nov 3 | 2 – 4 PM \nWorkshop with Alan Adler\, An Introduction to Color on Wood | Sat\, Dec 1 | 2 – 4:30 PM at the Center\n*Registration opening soon. \nWorkshop with Merryll Saylan\, Woodturning and Surface Treatment | Jan 17 & 18 | 10 AM – 4 PM each day | Dovetail Wood Arts at MaKen North\, 3525 I Street\, Philadelphia\n*Registration opening soon. \nClosing event and gallery talk with viewing of finished pieces from the workshop | Sat\, Jan 19 | 2 – 4 PM at the Center \n  \nTo RSVP for the workshops and for more information please contact Katie Sorenson\, at 215-923-8000 or katie@museumforartinwood.org.

SUMMARY:Young Artist Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Young Artist Speaker Series | Artist Colin Pezzano | Wed\, March 6\, 2019 | 6 – 8 pm | The Center for Art in Wood\nThe Center for Art in Wood is proud to present the Young Artist Speaker Series. Each semester a young artist is asked to share their work and speak about the transition from academia to an independent artist. The first in the series will feature artist Colin Pezzano taking place on Wednesday\, March 6\, 2019\, from 6 – 8 pm. \nColin Pezzano is a woodworker based out of Philadelphia\, PA.  Pezzano projects his unique sensibility onto the possibilities of furniture and uses this to offset the domestic environment with pathos and humor. His work is an honest self-searching\, channeling childhood experience and memory to bring beauty to the mundane\, shaping into an object the awkward fumbling form of youth and naivety. The result is something truly unique\, and surprisingly moving; considering the stark\, often minimal approach he takes in design. In these pieces\, in his take on everyday objects\, Pezzano strives to convey a long-lost sense of awe and wonder\,  a chance for a moment to regain a bit of our inner child\, our absent innocence.   He pushes himself in self-discovery\, and in that finds a piece of himself; a piece of all of us. \nColin graduated from University of The Arts in 2014. Upon graduation\, he received the Windgate Fellowship.  After Graduation\, Pezzano was featured in Craft Forms (2014) and was interviewed in an article with American Craft. In the Spring of 2015\, Pezzano had his first Solo show “Contain You”  at Bridgette Mayer Gallery. Since then\, Pezzano has appeared in several shows and galleries including The Smithsonian Craft Show (2016). Following the Smithsonian Craft show\, Colin was inspired to develop a small production line of furniture and objects\, collaborating with other craft artists. In 2018\, Colin had his second Solo show “Still Life with Dead Game”. Pezzano maintains his practice in Philadelphia out of his basement studio and currently is working at the University of Pennsylvania. \nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood is a nonprofit arts organization. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nFor question please contact Community Engagement Manager Katie Sorenson at katie@museumforartinwood.org.
