Museum of Craft and Folk Art says…

From Kurt Schwitter's Merzbau to Donald Judd's Marfa, Texas ranch, artists have long made their homes extensions of their studios, and vice versa. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given its reputation as a refuge for creative outsiders, California is home to some of the most spectacular contemporary examples of buildings that are themselves mediums for artistic expression. Inside/Outside offers a tour of some of the Golden State's most fascinating artistic environs, from Sam Rodia's monumental Watts Towers in LA to a full-scale recreation of skate and surf artist Mike Shine's Bolinas shack, putting a whole new gloss on "home decor."
