註釋Aptly titled, this splendid tour de force treats readers to multifaceted investigations of memorable objects "shimmering with consequence," from the formally sublime - Harvey Littleton's prismatic glass arcs, Laura Andreson's quixotic luster-glazed porcelains; to the socially portentous - Judy Chicago's feminist tableware; the satiric - Robert Aronson's ceramic finger-key typewriter; the harrowing - James Surl's cruciform wood mobile, "Needle Man"; the technically awesome - Stanley Lechtzin's electroformed silver jewelry; and just plain kitsch - Kenny Scharf's "Van Chrome Television." The authors, curators of the exhibition at Tulsa's Philbrook Museum that formed the basis for this volume, highlight new directions over the last two decades in work in clay, glass, metals, fibers and wood.
