 Comprised of four separate exhibitions, this show offers viewers an opportunity to experience rarely seen treasures from our extensive collection of historic and contemporary metalwork.
The first exhibition, titled Under Lock and Key, will showcase the Museum’s extensive collection of historic and handmade locks., including many examples from the Herbert P. MacNeal Collection. In the second exhibition, the J.G. Braun Collection of decorative ironwork will be on display, along with sales catalogs and texts from our library that illuminate its historical and artistic significance. The third exhibition, titled Domesticity, will feature handmade household items from the utilitarian to the extraordinary, each displaying an exquisite marriage of form and function. Finally, our Dorothy Sturm Memorial Gallery will host our collection of Sturm’s vibrant enamels. (above image: Cup, Gary Noffke, fine silver, 1983)
