At Home with the Artist: Whether it’s upstate, the island of Nevis or the Greek islands, Helen Marden keeps the doors open. The painter, jewel-box hotelier and art-world doyenne speaks with startling frankness and easy candor about creativity, money, illness, and the behaviors of some New York City gallerists.

The Chair Orchard: Alice and Gavin Munro are furniture makers with a difference. Using willow and other native hedgerow species, the couple grow lamps, chandeliers, tables and chairs by shaping them from trees, for periods of up to a decade, in a painstaking process fraught with uncertainty and the vagaries of nature, which only makes it more fascinating.
Words: Mark Hooper / Ph: Chris Webb
Giorgio Morandi: Leslie Williamson’s most recent book, Still Lives: In the Homes of Artists, Great and Unsung features a stunning collection of intimate portrayals of artists’ homes and studios, including Barbara Hepworth, Derek Jarman, Georgia O’Keeffe and Isamu Noguchi, among others.

Art & Craft: Kiva Motnyk harnesses nature’s bounty to create her kaleidoscopic textiles. Like artists who set up portable easels to capture the splendor of nature’s shifting moods, Motnyk, draws inspiration from hours spent walking her twenty-acre property. The rural landscape not only informs her palette but is also the source of her pigments.
