Profile
The first in a series of contemporary installations to take over the museum’s period rooms.
Make-believe
For “Playing House,” Anne Chu crafted birds and flowers out of textiles, feathers, paper, and metal; Ann Agee transformed the luxurious Milligan rooms into an artisan’s workshop; and Betty Woodman created table settings and “carpets” incorporating painting and ceramics.
