"Michael Monroe, one of the country's leading experts on crafts, is the former curator-in-charge of Washington's Renwick Gallery... He found fine use of materials, as well as other qualities in David R. Kiernan's wall cabinet of English sycamore, ebony and bird's eye maple, another Fellows Choice work. 'It has a sense of form and ceremony,' Monroe says. 'The interior is as important to the artist as the exterior. |
