The Bascom is pleased to have spectacular wooden bowls by Philip and Matt Moulthrop in The Greehey Atrium, just in time for holiday shopping. Working primarily with Southeastern wood, both create work that is truly breathtaking. Philip and Matt are world-renowned woodturners from the Atlanta area. Father and son learned at the hands of Philip’s father Ed, and their work is in permanent collections around the world. If you are already a collector of the Moulthrops’ work, or are ready to own a piece, you should come see all the beautiful bowls available. It would also be a great time to pick up a copy of Moulthrop: A Legacy In Wood. The text is drawn from extensive interviews with Ed, Philip, and Matt Moulthrop and contains essays by well-known collectors, and commentary by leading curators, artists and collectors. This 168-page book features numerous full color images of works created by Ed, Philip and Matt Moulthrop, historical photos, as well as a rare “behind the scenes” look at the artists working in the studio. The Bascom is located at 323 Franklin Road in Highlands and is open from Tuesday through Saturday, 10:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. by Teresa Osborn, Executive Director, The Bascom
