    Michael Peterson: Evolution | Revolution

    Join the San Francisco Museum of Craft+Design for a preview reception for Michael Peterson: Evolution | Revolution, a collection of more than 30 distinctive wood works that showcases two decades of artistic development, Thursday, October 15 from 6-8 p.m. Sip wine and be among the first to view 20 recent sculptures and 15 vessel forms that trace the evolution of Peterson’s work from lathe-turned wood bowls to his current abstract works, which feature complex, organic forms and textured surfaces.

    Michael Peterson’s wood sculptures are deeply inspired by his environment in the Pacific Northwest. This exhibition follows the artist’s unique trajectory from his early works to his most current organic abstract forms realized through the mastery of the chainsaw.

    Modern Jewelry

    Ever since I was a little girl, I have had an adoration for jewelry. So much so, I used to have a pretend shop in my room and I would sell my grandmother her own jewelry. I decided to select jewelry for the Dwell 2010 Holiday Guide in honor of sentimental memories and the uniqueness a piece of jewelry provides to our individual style.
