Description

"Accompanying an exhibition organized by Mark Richard Leach, director of the Mint Museum of Craft + Design in Charlotte, North Carolina, this book takes a look at contemporary wood turning in a series of essays.". "Photographs capture the beauty of each form and highlight the grain and texture of the various woods, including unusual species such as Manzanita, wenge, pistachio, madrone, and tulipwood. Rounding out the book are biographies of the artists, which provide pertinent information such as where they live and exhibit their work."--BOOK JACKET.
