Art of the Table
THURS–SUN, NOV 18–21
Join us for this four-day tribute to art and installation design—a premiere event that kicks off with a lecture by Alberto Alessi! Explore the unique tabletop installations of twenty-three area artists and designers throughout the galleries, walk under a larger-than-life-sized dining set, shop the Art of the Table Marketplace, discuss Why We Love (or Hate) Everyday Things, and more! Check out all the programming today and mark your calendars! Art of the Table is the perfect complement to European Design Since 1985: Shaping the New Century, the exhibition the Wall Street Journal has called a “tour de force”.
