> DESCRIPTION
Doors separate and define space, facilitating passage between interior and exterior, private and public, sacred and profane. The astonishing range of doors in the Fowler Museum collections demonstrates that doors are not just doors. These carved, embossed, embroidered, beaded, and painted portals from around the world illustrate extraordinary artistry and the wide conceptual variety that diverse cultures bring to the uses, meanings, and potentialities of doors. In the Fowler in Focus gallery inside Intersections: World Arts, Local Lives, see twenty elaborate doors from palaces, tombs, granaries, ceremonial houses and more.
