The Bright and Shining Light of Irreverence: Richard Saja and the Historically Inaccurate SchoolMay 17 – October 25, 2009 New York textiles designer Richard Saja channels his cheeky sense of humor and sophisticated style into transforming the interior of Shelburne Museum’s Kalkin House into a 19th - century salon infused with his characteristic “historically inaccurate” take on tradition. The site-specific installation includes new works in a variety of materials inspired by archetypal salon décor and objects in Shelburne Museum’s collections, including quilts, sillhouette portraits and needlework.
