Travel Dining<\/em><\/h2>\n

September 7 \u2013 December 3, 2022
\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman Health Center, Ann Arbor, Michigan<\/p>\n

The pandemic has reminded us, perhaps more than ever before, about how special travel is \u2013 exploring new places, meeting new people, and that includes dining with others during these adventures. This special exhibition explores travel dining by airplane, train, steam ship, carferry, and even space ship. Visitors may become nostalgic for the now defunct airlines Pan Am Airlines when they view dinnerware, menus, and even a vintage toy airplane.  What was it like to have tea on the Queen Mary while reclining on a deck chair? Remember the dining cars on the Streamliner trains?  Re-imagine enjoying the journey with your family on the carferry across Lake Michigan while aboard  the S.S. Badger. Visualize Captain Picard having tea on the Star Ship Enterprise\u2026<\/p>\n

Dinnerware + Design + Decoration<\/h2>\n

October 31 \u2013 November 3, 2019
\nSOFA Chicago 2019 Navy Pier, Chicago<\/h5>\n

Dinnerware + Design + Decoration<\/em> is a special exhibition of masterpieces selected from the IMoDD permanent collection that exemplify a diverse range of form and surface decorating techniques in addition to good design. These masterpieces of the tabletop genre were created by contemporary artists Jeff Oestreich, Warren MacKenzie, S.C. Rolf, Vivika & Otto Heino, Kate Maury, Tara Barnes-Stumpf, Paul Donnelly, Lea Zoltowski, and Herbert Sanders, along with leading designers for industry, Eva Zeisel, Josiah Wedgwood, Frederick Carder, Glidden Parker and Fong Chow, Piero Fornasetti, among others.<\/p>\n

Identifying the featured sculptural embellishments, carving, faceting, sprig decorating, decals, hand-painting, incising, and various glazing techniques such as wax resist and crystalline glazes, will be the pleasure of the viewer. Decorations can add another dimension to the work, complementing and enriching (or in some cases, competing with) the basic form. Eva Zeisel\u2019s 1950s white, undecorated Hallcraft teapot will be juxtaposed with another seven identical yet decal-decorated teapots.  Viewers can decide whether the maxim, \u201cWhen in doubt, buy white,\u201d is their mantra, or whether ornate decorations influence their selection.<\/p>\n

Tabletop Stories<\/h2>\n

A partnership exhibition presented by the International Museum of Dinnerware Design and the Ann Arbor District Library<\/p>\n

Exhibition Dates: December 3, 2018 to January 26, 2019  
\nHours: Mon. 10am – 9 pm, Tues. – Fri. 9 am – 9 pm, Sat. 9 am – 6 pm, Sun. 12 pm – 6 pm
\nLocation: Ann Arbor District Library<\/a>, Downtown Branch, Lower Level, 343 South Fifth Ave., <\/span>Ann Arbor, <\/span>MI 48104<\/span><\/p>\n

This exhibition pairs memorable stories published as books, operas, and perhaps a restaurant menu, with the notable dinnerware that followed.  Visitors may recognize at least one teapot in the form of Sherlock Holmes; plates, bowls, cups and saucers with Rockwell Kent illustrations from Herman Melville’s Moby Dick<\/em>; and charming dishes celebrating children’s favorite book characters such as Babar and Peter Rabbit.  The exhibit explores the ubiquitous Blue Willow china pattern, marketed by the British as being derived from a Chinese legend. One may also be captivated by depictions of Charles Dickens’ characters from David Copperfield<\/em> and Martin Chuzzlewit<\/em>.  There are simply too many stories and dishes to list, but think about the Donner Party, One Thousand and One Nights<\/em>,The Story of Ping<\/em>, Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic opera Yeoman of the Guard<\/em>, and more surprises. Come for the books, stay for the dinnerware. Come for the dishes, stay for the books.<\/p>\n

Unapologetic Dinnerware: a brief history of disposable dinnerware<\/h2>\n

When considering dining in 2018, there is not anything more timely than examining how the current state of single use dinnerware impacts our lives and our environment. In India alone, billions of plastic utensils are discarded annually. This special exhibition traces the history of disposable or single use dinnerware from ancient Mesopotamia to the present. Material culture artifacts of an intentionally \u201cdisposable\u201d nature from diverse cultures and time periods, as well as prototypes from contemporary designers in India, Japan, Jordan, Portugal, Germany and the United States will be featured.  Think American TV dinners, Chinese take out, edible cutlery from India, Japanese disposable trainware, plates made of fallen leaves from Indonesia, biodegradable coffee kits from Portugal, beer six-pack rings that may be consumed by marine life, and more.<\/p>\n

Timeless Dinnerware Design<\/h4>\n

at SOFA Chicago 2017, Navy Pier, November 2-5 2017<\/p>\n

Timeless Dinnerware Design<\/em> is special exhibition by the International Museum of Dinnerware Design for SOFA Chicago 2017, focusing on dinnerware created since the 1930s; each object or set, a masterpiece in dinnerware design that has proven to be lasting, classical and eternal and exudes timelessness in its presentation \u2013 work that captures our imagination whether it is futuristic, nostalgic, or of the moment.  Curated from the permanent collection, the exhibition is a sample visual exploration of dinnerware designed duringthe last 100 years.  Some were intended to adorn our fine tabletops for all eternity, and others were created to be less permanent, despite attracting qualities and design success and accolades galore.

The International Museum of Dinnerware Design\u2019s special Barware exhibition at Morgan & York, a fine wine and specialty foods establishment in Ann Arbor, offers a perfect opportunity to see a sampling of well-designed objects from its permanent collection intended to be used in making or serving cocktails, beer, or sake. Each has an element of beauty, and often there is an additional element of celebration and fun. These barware objects for special occasions remind one instantly of the 1930s, 40s, 50s, and 60s in the United States, Europe and Asia. All are made from glass, ceramic, metal and\/or plastic\/bakelite.<\/p>\n

\nJanuary 19 – February 25, 2016<\/p>\n

The concept of an exhibition celebrating the notion of quenching one\u2019s thirst, includes but goes beyond the usual kinds of drinking vessels one utilizes on a daily basis.  Quenching one\u2019s thirst involves special memories because it literally means to drink until one is satisfied. While it may involve the same act over and over again — pouring a drink of water, juice, hot cocoa, beer, Kool-aid, lemonade, milk, coffee, tea, a cocktail, sake, liqueur, or some other beverage, it is the desire to satisfy one\u2019s thirst that is so memorable. And it is made even more memorable based on the circumstances and the types of dinnerware involved.  The utensils could be ceramic, metal, plastic, glass, paper, or wood.  And in one\u2019s memory the pouring vessel and the receptacle are probably both beautiful and a distinctive shape.

Delicious Dishes was just like it sounds \u2013 a beautiful, colorful and tempting display of dishes that are delicious, with or without accompanying food. Works exhibited were created of ceramic, glass, plastic, wood, and metal and originated in the U.S., England, France, Germany, Portugal, Japan, and China, between 960 A.D. and the present. Diverse was the key descriptive element. There were walls of plates! The rare prototype photosensitive glass plate with the fern pattern designed by Ted Reyda at Corning, allowed the host or hostess to change their dinnerware every time he or she changed the tablecloth. Just imagine \u201cnew\u201d dishes by just changing the table surface beneath the plate!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
