Terry Berlier, one of the artists whose work is in the exhibition The 2015 Dorothy Saxe Invitational: Tzedakah Box, discusses her work in the larger context of craft, design, and how the invitation to create work on the theme of tzedakah affected her process.
The tzedakah box is a traditionally humble container found in synagogues, Jewish homes, and institutions in which charitable donations are deposited. The Museum asked 38 West Coast fine artists and contemporary craftspeople to reimagine the tzedakah box, and the thought-provoking results are on view April 9-May 17, 2015 in a new exhibition.
