"Free-Form Steam Bending" drew an overflow crowd (photo, page 36). This demonstration was led by Michael Fortune, one of Canada's premier furniture builders. Michael was the winner of this year's Furniture Society Award of Distinction for his out- standing body of work and inspiring leadership. You can view some of Michael's superb bentwood furniture at www.michaelfortune.com. Many other demonstrations offered a first-hand look at how a master craftsman thinks and works.John Levine led a workshop on Japanese and Chinese joinery. Kim Kelzer dis- cussed the use ofcolor in finishing.John Livingston andJohn Marston, First Nations carvers, spoke about Northwest masks, figures, and panels. Richard Oedel covered bent tapered lamination techniques. And there was more - something for everybody. GnllrnY ExHtgtrS rhe conference included several gallery exhibits that were a feast for the eyes. On display were dozens of pieces of custom furniture, ranging from the formal to the fantastic. Each gallery represented a different group of artists. The "Cultural Mosaic" exhibit included work from First Nations, Asian, and European cul- tures. Its centerpiece was a stun- ning First Nations Ceremonial Chair, a collaborative effort of five artisans (see photo, page 37). Balancing this exuberant work was a serene linenfold carved- oak armchair, made in lTth century England. Fumiture Society members entered work that ranged from the function- al to the futuristic in the "Members' Show."
