  • This catalog accompanies an exhibition organized by the Vitra Design Museum, the Milwaukee Art Museum, and the Institute of Contemporary Art Philadelphia. Founded in the 18th century, the Shaker community was a free church that embraced social equality, communal property, and pacifism, viewing work and design as expressions of their faith.
  • The Shakers’ radically simple, functional objects profoundly influenced modern design, inspiring generations of artists, architects, and designers up to the present day. The Shakers: A World in the Making accompanies the eponymous exhibition—designed by Milan-based studio Formafantasma—which will present a wide range of Shaker furniture, architecture, tools, and commercial products.
  • Works by contemporary artists and designers, including Chris Halstrøm, Christien Meindertsma, and Kameelah Janan Rasheed, enter into dialogue with the historical displays, reflecting the Shakers’ enduring relevance.
