Marquetry artist earns showcase at Addison Gallery of American Art
ANDOVER, Mass. – Alison Elizabeth Taylor: The Sum of It is on view now through July 30 at the Addison Gallery of American Art . Known for her daring and inventive fusion of the centuries-old practice of marquetry, or wood inlay, with gritty and provocative subject matter, Alison Elizabeth Taylor tells tales that are unequivocally modern. This exhibition, the first museum survey devoted to Taylor, assembles dozens of works that chronicle her steady mastery of the now nearly forgotten techniques of this rarified medium and reveal her talent as an extraordinary storyteller and chronicler of 21st-century American culture. It is accompanied by a fully illustrated publication featuring essays by exhibition curator Allison Kemmerer, New Yorker journalist Naomi Fry and novelist Lynne Tillman.
