Exhibition at Dallas Museum of Art showcases the works of the New York artist and furniture maker, who was devoted to personal expression and called his work "artistic furniture." The show, featuring more than 40 pieces of furniture and related objects by an artist whose "forms and imaginative carving combined many different influences, from the abstract naturalism of art nouveau styling to boldly direct forms characteristic of the Arts and Crafts movement," opens Sept. 20 and will be on view through Jan. 3.
