As I type this, Everybody’s Bolos is being installed at the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton Massachusetts. I co-curated this exhibition of bolo ties with Brian Fleetwood and Hannah Toussaint which opened at UNT and is now traveling (you can read the project backstory here). We also produced a catalog and symposium. Maybe a broadway musical is next?
If you are in the area, please come out to the Fuller on Saturday February 1 from 2-5 for the reception. Brian and I will be talking about the background of the exhibition and our research into the fascinating, liminal bolo tie during at public presentation at 3:30.
To whet your appetite, you can read a wonderful article by Andrea Valluzzo that just appeared in Antiques and the Arts Weekly.
