Todd Merrill Studio presents two exhibitions at the Museum of Arts and Design, presenting works by artists John Procario and Alice Riehl. Opening October 26 and on view through April 4, 2027. Each takes a single material to the limit of what it can do, and each is built at the scale of a room.

John Procario: Freeforms — Sculptural Explorations in Wood and Light
On View October 26, 2026 – April 4, 2027

Alice Riehl: Herbarium Interior
On View October 27, 2026 – April 4, 2027

Museum of Arts and Design,
2 Columbus Circle, New York

John Procario: Freeforms — Sculptural Explorations in Wood and Light, presented with Todd Merrill Studio in partnership with Dedar, is the first museum solo exhibition devoted to LED sculptural lighting. John Procario pioneered freeform bentwood lamination integrated with LED, a technique that could not exist without the LED strips developed in the early 2000s. Trained as a sculptor, he came to see wood as a metaphor for the human body, and spent months deliberately breaking it to learn exactly how far it could be pushed.

“I would describe my work as having a heartbeat. Each piece has its own personality. As you move around it, the form appears to shift and change.” — John Procario

The exhibition unfolds across two galleries. The first, painted deep black, gives the suspended sculptures and sconces their silhouettes. The second, bright white and clad in metallic wall coverings from Dedar, holds the Sculptural Seating series and Basin, a freestanding light sculpture of nearly seven feet.

Sébastien Léon Agneessens is turning the colors of the cars into glass.

The Bridlemont Concours, held alongside the final day of the Highlands Cup at Highlands Hudson Valley, where Sébastien León unveils a new series of matte-colored glass sculptures inspired by the colors of the automobiles on display.

His presentation also included his acclaimed sound sculpture, The Echoes of Our Dreams, originally presented at the international Art & Design Fair NOMAD Hamptons, with an abstract soundtrack based on the noise of race cars. His original work was on view throughout the property across both weekends of The Autumn Invitational.

Part two of our look at design and art at Highlands Hudson Valley. See the previous post for The Legacy Club by Andrew Franz Architect PLLC.

Now in its third year, Highlands Hudson Valley brings Olympic and top-ranked show jumpers to the Hudson Valley across the first two weekends of October to create a one-of-a-kind equestrian experience combining sport, architecture, art, design, automotive culture, wellness, and hospitality— in a single destination.

This year, one of the central design stories is that our client, New York-based architect and designer Andrew Franz Architect PLLC, has been appointed Design Curator of The Legacy Club. Andrew has designed and curated the club’s dining and private lounge areas, wellness spa, and additional hospitality spaces for sponsors such as Discovery Land Community, Airshare, and Miller Motors. He has transformed the event’s tents into distinctive environments for viewing, gathering, and entertaining, using furniture from brands such as AGUIRRE, Roche Bobois Official, foundcollectibles, Cavalo and Lusitano by Jessica Gersten, and more.

“The sport will always be at the heart of it, but we wanted every part of the experience to match that standard, from the Legacy Club to the art on the grounds.” (Pedro Torres, via )

Up next: the art on the grounds, including new work by Sébastien Léon Agneessens.

Molly Hatch is turning a museum gallery into a jewelry box — and inviting you to step inside.

Opening October 17 at Fuller Craft Museum, Molly Hatch: Agency is a site-specific installation created for the museum’s soaring Atrium Gallery. Oversized ceramic bows, snakes, swallows, arrows, and celestial forms, each hand-thrown and hand-painted, draw on Victorian jewelry motifs historically tied to prescribed notions of femininity and male ownership, and recast them as declarations of independence, resilience, and collective strength.

In her words, Molly Hatch is reclaiming that symbolism “as symbols of feminist strength and resilience.”

Her work is in the permanent collections of the High Museum of Art and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal), and she has created nearly 15 installations for Tiffany & Co. Blue Box Cafés (Blue Box Café by Daniel Boulud) around the world. Agency was made specifically for Fuller Craft Museum and remains on view through October 1, 2028.

Hear from Molly Hatch about the ideas and process behind the installation on opening day: Saturday, October 17, 3–5 PM. Registration recommended — link in bio.

Congratulations to Katharina Plath, our Principal & Founder, recognized for the Pool of Brands™ approach that connects artists, designers, and brands across the American and European markets — and to Sara Di Gangi, our Head of Strategic Growth and Partnerships, whose work shapes our client portfolio and connects our roster to an international network of editors, curators, and cultural institutions.

We couldn’t be prouder to see our team welcomed into this community, and to share the recognition of what Head & Hand has built over more than a decade: fostering connections across the worlds of design, art, architecture, and culture.

Before she was Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet’s Culinary Experience Manager, Stephanie Banyas spent two decades as Bobby Flay’s Director of Culinary Operations and Production — developing recipes across ten Food Network series and co-writing fourteen of his cookbooks. These days, that same expertise goes into recipes brought to life in Kalamazoo’s own kitchens.

In FINE Magazine, Banyas walks through what heat, smoke, and fuel actually do to food — why a seared watermelon caramelizes instead of turning to mush, why halloumi wants speed over patience, and why “char doesn’t mean burnt, it means flavor.”

Kalamazoo’s Hybrid Fire Grill offers Stephanie the ability to choose the fire according to the food: from cooking with gas, charcoal, or wood. Her Grilled Halloumi & Watermelon Skewers pair smoky sweetness with salty cheese. Her Peach-Ginger Chutney does double duty on a cheese board, in a vinaigrette, or brushed onto pork. And her Grilled Nectarine Melba proves dessert can come off the fire too — fitting, since stone fruit’s run is almost over. Cranberries, figs, pears, and apples take over next.

H&H is proud to welcome Artefacto to H&H’s POOL OF BRANDS™ — the leading Brazilian luxury furnishings house marking a milestone few companies reach: fifty years, three generations, one family.

Founded in São Paulo in 1976 by patriarch Albino Bacchi, Artefacto grew from a collection of handmade, sustainable furnishings into an industry name — expanding to the U.S. under second-generation leader Paulo Bacchi in 2002, and now helmed in New York by twin brothers Pietro and Bruno Bacchi at their Madison Avenue flagship.

This month, the brand marks its golden anniversary with the debut of Cosmos: a 17-piece collection that looks both backward and forward, drawing direct inspiration from Albino’s original mid-century designs. Look for Solar System, a six-module seating system that expands like orbiting bodies, and the Jupiter Cabinet, with hammered amber glass doors and a hidden refrigerated drawer.

Join Artefacto and third-generation leader Pietro Bacchi on September 23rd for an evening of live music and custom cocktails celebrating five decades of Brazilian design. 149 Madison Avenue, 5:30–7:30 PM. DM us to RSVP.

For nearly four decades, American Leather has been the design world’s fastest secret — the call that solved a deadline no one else could touch. Now, the brand adds a second register: a stylish new direction.

Introducing A.L. Studio, American Leather’s first collection built expressly for the trade — 15 pieces drawing from Parisian nightlife, Italian radicalism, and Brazilian Modernism in equal measure. The Mabel sofa reimagines a Federal back, full and plush; the Holland chair slices a tunnel through its base for an unexpected play of color and texture.

As creative consultant Lance Trachier tells Galerie Magazine, the collection is “threaded together by a distinct commitment to geometric form paired with sumptuous curves” — American Leather’s signature speed, now backed by real design conviction.

See it up close at DENNIS MILLER NEW YORK, where A.L. Studio is on preview by appointment. The collection will officially launch next month at this Fall’s High Point Market in North Carolina.
