Meilach (art history, Northwestern U.) displays the art of modern artist-blacksmiths with approximately 250 images of ironwork in the form of flowers, grapevines, animal sculptures, and candlesticks and other fine variations on functional objects. The variety of color, twisting and folding techniques, textures, and size among the featured art astounds, and receives recognition in the attractive color plates.
