Tools As Art: The Hechinger Collection

Tools as Art showcases more than 200 works that instantiate or use tools and hardware from the Hechinger Collection. Artists such as Jim Dine, Arman, Jean Tinguely, Lucas Samaras, Richard Estes, Claes Oldenburg, and Walker Evans, employ their imaginative power to construct witty sculptures of tools. Pete Hamill contributes in a delightful essay that shares his insights on the creative process and meaning of tools in our lives. The quality of the work that is displayed invokes a strong sense of connection to the household objects that are not typically found in modern art.
