Fred Woell FROM 1969 TO TODAY: 50 YEARS OF CRAFT EVOLUTION (January 2020) form & concept is thrilled to present OBJECTS: REDUX—50 Years of Craft Evolution, featuring over 70 pieces by seminal historical and contemporary craft artists, including J. Fred Woell, Sonya Clark, Ken Cory, Raven Halfmoon, Nicki Green, Jennifer Ling Datchuk and Kat Cole, among others. Ranging from textile, jewelry, metal, and enamel to wood, ceramics and glass, the exhibition positions work from the original 1969 OBJECTS: USA show alongside innovative craft objects and wearables by contemporary makers. In 1969, the Smithsonian American Art Museum debuted OBJECTS: USA, a sprawling exhibition featuring 308 craft artists and over 500 objects. The show would travel the United States and Europe, vaulting craft into the contemporary art milieu and forever changing the way we view material culture. Fifty years later, this tribute exhibition incorporates work by artists in the original display alongside historic and contemporary makers who expand upon and complicate the conversation. If OBJECTS: USA first established the field of craft as a vital component of the fine art world conversation, OBJECTS: REDUX demonstrates not only modern craft artists’ keen sense and appreciation of their predecesors, but also the field’s ongoing spirit of boundary-defying inventiveness and material resourcefulness. Curator William Dunn writes, “It’s wonderful to be a part of this show’s continued legacy.

Abstract: The Craft and Folk Art Museum has been an extraordinarily active institution both in its first incarnation as the commercial folk art and crafts gallery, The Egg and The Eye (1965-1975), and then as the nonprofit museum (1975-1997) that carried on the gallery's interest in contemporary crafts and international folk art, and in the eighties added product design and vernacular architecture to its program. The collection consists of papers, publications, photographs, press clippings and media releases, slides, audiotapes, videotapes, films, memorabilia, and objects.
