Jackie Ferrara: Benches, Thrones, and a Table

 
Jackie Ferrara

 
Philadelphia: The Galleries at Moore, 1987. 8 pp; 1 color pl. and 3 b&w ills., exhibition history, bibliography, exhibition checklist. Soft back $10 plus s/h [ISBN 1-58442-015-4].

Catalog for the exhibition of the same name held at the Galleries at Moore, January 12–February 18, 1987. The catalog documents Ferrera's architectonic sculpture and models. At once classically symmetrical and disquietingly irregular, her work has the out-of-place, out-of-time quality of mythical creations. Ferrara's benches typically employ alternating, stacked strips of dark- and light-stained wood—glued, nailed, or pegged together in whimsical and mysterious constructions. The illustrations are accompanied by “ Form Follows Fantasy,” Elsa Longhauser's discussion of the artist's influences and vision.
