[spectre] The New Materiality.

Sorry for any cross posting...

The New Materiality.

The New Materiality: Digital Dialogues at the Boundaries of Contemporary 
Craft, an exhibition that began at the Fuller Craft Museum and is 
currently up at the Milwaukee Art Museum (MAM) until June 12, follows on 
and extends current trends in contemporary craft. It engages not only 
with craft’s reinvigoration as a creative practice and discourse, but 
with how these have been shaped by, and also transformed, new 
technologies, new designs, new materials and new ideas. Wilson’s 
exhibition and events make discussions around Art or Craft, Art or 
Design, Digital or Hand-made, and Conceptual or not seem, in a word, 
quaint; she engages with a broad set of materialized ideas that divide 
and relate across the artistry of craft, the ephemera of technology, and 
the theoretical frames of post-conceptual art.
