Object Oriented: Abstraction and Design in the BAMPFA Collection

September 10 – July 12

At BAMPFA Store

Downtown Berkeley, Berkeley

Spend time with each piece, let it surprise you
Chairs appear as bodies, metal, or sculpture

See the familiar become strange at this exhibition where chairs, bottles, and everyday objects transform into sculptures, stand-ins for bodies, or pure metal. Artists play with perception, turning design into a question rather than an answer.
