*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The 1903 Syracuse, New York, Arts and Crafts Exhibition is a signature event in the Movement?s history. But were it not for what else happened, the exhibition could be dismissed for what it was: Gustav Stickley?s self-serving, shameless shilling for his hometown United Crafts furniture enterprise. Following a twelve-day run in Stickley?s salesrooms, the exhibition moved ninety miles west to Mechanics Institute in Rochester. Stickley?s traveling exhibit predates by a decade what is usually acknowledged as the first art exhibition held at multiple venues, the New York Armory Show. A Symbiotic Partnership reveals the driver of the courtship that led to an unusual marriage between a commercial furniture manufacturer and a not-for-profit educational >institution: a corner cupboard. This previously undocumented cupboard-server, purchased by Mechanics Institute from United Crafts in 1901, spurred a partnership for a co-sponsored exhibition pivotal in the Arts and Crafts Movement?s growth ? transforming decorative arts and art education.
