About
Contemporary Applied Arts (CAA) presents ‘Seven: Seven Decades, Seven Makers, Seven Disciplines’. This week-long exhibition showcases one maker for each applied arts discipline of ceramics, wood, glass, jewellery, metal, paper and textiles. As London’s original multidisciplinary applied arts gallery, CAA views this approach as a harmonious dialogue between materials, techniques and diverse approaches to making. The makers are craft professionals and rigorously chosen by a panel of their peers.
‘Seven’ features makers Lise Herud Braten, Matthew Paré, Michéle Oberdieck, Marian Ripoll, Claire Malet, Kuniko Maeda and Margo Selby.
Visit CAA throughout London Craft Week, with a late opening on Thursday 11 May until 7pm. Visitors can also meet the minds behind the work on Saturday 13 May during the Meet the Maker event.
