6 Objects That Capture Everything Brilliant and Strange About the Shakers

The Institute of Contemporary Art in Philadelphia has opened a new exhibition titled "A World in the Making: The Shakers," which places the work of seven contemporary artists alongside over 100 historical Shaker objects. The show, a collaboration with the Vitra Design Museum and the Milwaukee Art Museum, draws heavily from the collection of the Shaker Museum in New York to explore the community's legacy of radical simplicity, order, and purpose.

Actor Frances McDormand and performance artist Suzanne Bocanegra have debuted a new iteration of their multi-sensory installation, 'CRADLED', at Hauser & Wirth’s downtown Los Angeles location. Developed in collaboration with the Shaker Museum, the exhibition features adult-sized cradles and Shaker furniture designed for care and infirmity. The performance-based installation explores themes of mortality, loneliness, and communal care through the lens of Shaker craft and spiritual tradition.
