Conference
The aim of this conference is to depart from the traditional histories of furniture and the interior. The focus is not the famous makers, such as Sheraton, Chippendale and Hepplewhite, but rather the cultural contexts of furniture design, the less well-known firms and the impact of theoretical studies upon the way in which furniture is discussed.
Papers will examine a variety of subjects, including the firms of Crace & Son, Holland & Son and Gillows, and will also develop new ideas on the domestic object in the 1950âs, reading Victorian images of furniture and the perception of the authentic piece.
The conference will be of interest to anyone who wishes to re-examine the history of furniture and furnishings, or to explore exciting new approaches to archival work.
