Fuller Craft Museum is the recent recipient of stellar examples of enamel arts, gifted from the Enamel Arts Foundation Collection as part of their national initiative to increase access to this extraordinary genre of contemporary craft. These acquisitions represent a broad range of artistic interests, subjects, and techniques. The selection, currently on view, includes wearable forms, three-dimensional objects, and wall-mounted plaques and panels, allowing audiences an overview of enameling along with insight into the various forms artists have used in their exploration of this medium.

Small Wonders includes work by some of the leading figures in late 20th-century American enameling such as June Schwarcz, Harold B. Helwig, Joseph Trippetti, Barbara Minor, Kate Berl, and Sarah Perkins. The exhibition will also display works from emerging leaders in the field, namely Martha Banyas, Jessica Calderwood, and Zachery Lechtenberg. What’s more, the inclusion of New England artists Lilyan Bachrach, Marion Lang, Rick McMullen, and Barbara Seidenath engages artists living and working in the region.
