Outside the Circle: Indiana Woodturning

April 14th 2012 - June 17th 2012

Outside the Circle: Woodturning in Indiana celebrates the beauty and creativity of contemporary wood objects that were turned on a lathe.  Beginning as practical pieces made by hobbyists, woodturning has matured through experimentation to works of art made with purely aesthetic aims; the art form has drastically evolved beyond candlesticks and bedposts!   While some pieces remain utilitarian, others are truly ‘art for art’s sake.’  This juried exhibition will feature artists living and creating across the state of Indiana and pieces that take a range and variety of forms, figures, and functions.  Take a peek at what happens when we let the chips fly!
