American Originals Closing This Sunday!
Through Sun, Aug 23
You think you know furniture? Chairs, tables—they’re all the same, right? But have you ever seen a chair whose design was inspired by the cellular structure of oak when viewed through a microscope? Stunning. Experience the exquisite designs (radical for their day) of a true original in The Artistic Furniture of Charles Rohlfs.
See eight shows in one! That’s what you get with The Eight and American Modernisms. View everyday life in early-twentieth-century America through the eyes of eight individual painters who challenged the academic status quo: look into the faces of the people and escape to the beach, the country, and the cabaret–all in one visit!
