Opening Reception for All That Glitters and Design by Time

January 23, 2020 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

You are invited to join us for the opening reception for two exhibitions — All That Glitters: Spark and Dazzle from the Permanent Collection and Design by Time. The two exhibitions will run Jan. 24-May 17.All That Glitters investigates humanity’s age-old fascination with shiny objects. What is it that makes them so attractive? Some of the Gregg Museum of Art & Design’s most visually stunning objects help probe some of the deeper cultural, psychological and even evolutionary impulses behind their appeal.Design by Time, from the Pratt Manhattan Gallery, offers works from 22 international designers portraying time and its dynamic effects on fashion, furniture, textiles, vessels and more, through processes like the growth of plants, the pull of gravity or the transformational potential of fire.
