TRAVELING EXHIBITS:
"Fay Jones architecture begins in order and ends in mystery. ...His role can perhaps best be understood as a mediator, a human consciousness that has arisen from the Arkansas soil and scoured the cosmos, then spoken through the voices of stone and wood, glass and steel. Art, philosophy, craft, and human aspiration coalesce in his masterworks, transformed from acts of will into harmonies: Jones lets space sing." So writes Robert Adams Ivy, Jr. in the exhibit essay for "Outside the Pale' The Architecture of Fay Jones," a magnificent retrospective of Jones's life and work exhibited at the Old State House between June 1999 and July 2000.
The traveling exhibition is contained within eleven crates, with a minimum requirement of 960 square feet of exhibition space. The exhibition includes a video kiosk, two platforms (60"x36" and 36"x32") for a plant stand, a chair, and a table designed by Fay Jones, and 3 double-sided panels that are arranged by topic:
