{"product_id":"poplar-culture-the-wharton-esherick-museum-9780764342080","title":"Poplar Culture: The Celebration of Esherick's Tree","description":"When Wharton Esherick built his famous studio in 1926, it was situated near two tulip poplar trees. These trees became \"witness trees,\" witnessing the history Esherick made there. In the late 1970s, one of these trees was struck by lighting. In 2010, this mighty witness came down. As Esherick himself had made great use of poplar boards, the Museum invited over 40 select artists to create artwork from the fallen poplar. Since Esherick was influenced by hobbyists and professional artists, the Wharton Esherick Museum invited established, emerging, and student artists alike. Captured here in 120 brilliant color photos are the resulting works of art. Among them are furniture, furnishings, woodcut prints, a poplar splint basket, ceramics finished with a poplar wood-ash glaze, and, true to Wharton Esherick, a wide range of functional sculpture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e The Wharton Esherick Museum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0764342088\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764342080\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Craft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.70w x 0.70d","brand":"The Wharton Esherick Museum","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48998636421375,"sku":"9780764342080","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/poplar-culture-the-wharton-esherick-museum-9780764342080","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
