Boundaries and Art


In a time when there are "craft" museums changing their names to "art" +/or "design" museums, and some "art" museums changing their names to "craft" museums, I took notice of a full page ad in American Craft magazine.

The ad, announcing the re-branded, move/re-opening of the "Museum of Arts and Design" (MAD) in New York City, has this wonderful statement:

"Where old boundaries are lost. And new art is found."

Nice!
