This paper which is drawn from Julia Bryan-Wilson's forthcoming book Art in the Making, co-authored with Glenn Adamson, examines recent art that pivots between woodworking and architecture to consider questions of fabrication, materiality, and process.
Julia Bryan-Wilson has been at the forefront of debates of queer craft since her article "Queerly Made" appeared in 2009 in The Journal of Modern Craft. She is the author of Art Workers: Radical Practice in the Vietnam War Era (U California), and co-author, with Glenn Adamson, of Art in the Making (Thames and Hudson, forthcoming). Her book on textiles since the 1970s is due out in 2017 from the University of Chicago Press. She is Associate Professor of Modern and Contemporary Art at the University of California, Berkeley.
