SagHarbor Museum: When The World Was Wood

Opening tomorrow...

When The World Was Wood Curated by Richard Doctorow Opening Reception: Friday, July 20th from 6:00 to 8:00pm Living in a time when virtually every object we use in our daily lives is made of metal, plastic or some new cutting-edge, high-tech material, it is hard to imagine a time when almost everything was made of wood. But for the first two centuries of America’s history, wood was not only the most prevalent choice of material, it was often the only choice – so much so that historians sometimes call the years 1650 to 1850 “America’s Wood Age.” When The World Was Wood explores this amazing period in America’s history by presenting some 100 objects (primarily from the 19th century) that are made of wood. Not only objects that we might expect - utensils, bowls, barrels, buckets, signs, toys and tools - but also those that are delightfully surprising, including a tricycle, gears for a tower clock, and even a washing machine manufactured right here in Sag Harbor in the 1860s.

Fascinated by Art in the Underground At the sculpture network Dialogue in Munich last Thursday, Lothar Schiffler shared his passion for art in the underground with us. Prior to this evening hardly anyone of those present had been aware of the huge diversity of art which is present in subway stations worldwide. Curious what we discovered in the Munich underground? Check out our picture gallery!

Love at Second Glance Our editor Elisabeth Pilhofer sets out this summer to search for places where sculpture and architecture meet. Her first stop: a sculpture that people in Munich call "Barfi" but surprises the observer at second glance. Read more

Can Art Embody an Attitude? This question is pursued by the art historian Willy Hafner. In his review of the first sculpture network Lab in Amsterdam, he states: "Absolute freedom is an illusion. There is no natural state of freedom, people everywhere always have to fight for freedom – in art, just like in real life." Read more

Join us at our Dialogue in Berlin ! Karol Broniatowski and the curator Anne Schwanz will guide us through the exhibition "Karol Broniatowski - IM MOMENT" on July 18th. Afterwards, there will be time for a drink together and networking in small groups. We look forward to seeing you! Further Information
