Our galleries are open late tonight, 9/16, and tomorrow 9/17, from 6-8pm to celebrate the final days of "The Clamor of Ornament: Exchange, Power, and Joy from the Fifteenth Century to the Present." Closing this Sunday, September 18, "The Clamor of Ornament" explores ornament in architecture, art, and design through the lens of drawing. The exhibition brings together more than 200 objects from across the globe and features a broad range of drawings, prints, books, textiles, and photographs dating from the fifteenth century to the present. Foregrounding ornament’s potential as a mode of communication, a form of currency, and a means of exchange across geographies and cultures, "The Clamor of Ornament" both celebrates and interrogates ornament’s fluidity.
