Judy Kensley McKie is recognized as a premiere figure in the American studio furniture movement. Her furniture in carved and painted wood and in cast bronze, marble, stone, and resin occupies a singular position in the field. The work is infused with a lively awareness of modernist and contemporary art and also with the designs aesthetic of indigenous cultures throughout the world. Playfulness and power are summoned by her incorporation of sculptural, totemic animal forms. Her work has been featured in major survey exhibitions of the studio furniture field at such venues as the Museum of Arts and Design in New York, the Museum of Art, Rhode Island School of Design, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, all of which hold examples of her work in their collections.(Gallery Naga)
