Things were a little different at this year's SOFA art show. First, an artist friend of mine, Kathy Weaver, had a piece in Gallery 19's booth:

Another thing that was different about this year's show that I didn't realize until putting this blog post together is that there wasn't any furniture that caught my eye this year. The functional art I liked best was mostly vases and jewelry. Here are my favorite things. As always, I tried to make sure to include the name of the artist with the artwork but missed a few.

Thanks for posting all these photos! Missed the expo due to work. I see some of these pieces might speak a bit to social questions and conditions. Did anything jump out at you in that vein, or that you found provocative or moving?
ReplyDeleteNot nearly as much as the work in last year's EXPO show, to be honest.
