Exhibit: Ozark Modern: Edward Durell Stone’s Fulbright Furniture

Edward Durell Stone and Sen. J. William Fulbright, two successful sons of Fayetteville, Ark., joined forces in the early 1950s. Fulbright wanted to diversify his family’s wagon-making company, and he asked the architect, a lifelong friend, to design furniture for production. The resulting pieces—on view in Ozark Modern: Edward Durell Stone’s Fulbright Furniture, at the University of Arkansas’ Fine Arts Center Gallery—combined midcentury modern’s clean lines with a regional Arkansas aesthetic. Through Feb. 16. • art.uark.edu/fineartsgallery
