About Me

Chris Boerner: Chris Boerner is an artistic woodturner, specializing in creating beautiful, one-of-kind pieces from a variety of rare and unusual wood. Chris displays his work through art galleries and shows and is included in the prestigious Waterbury Collection in Minneapolis, MN. Geoff Edgers, a staff writer for The News and Observer, said, “[Chris’] best pieces can’t hold a drop of anything. The edges might be jagged, the surface a variety of shades rendering each piece as unique as a snowflake.”

Chris Boerner - Inclusion in the prestigious Waterbury Woodturning Collection

Friday, June 17, 2011—Sunday, September 4, 2011

U.S. Bank Gallery-Minneapolis Museum of Art
Free Exhibition

This exhibition showcases the premier wood art collection of Minneapolitans David and Ruth Waterbury, which is considered one of the best in the country.

The exhibition includes approximately 80 pieces of wood art, representing the changing approaches to the medium during the past twenty-five years, from simple turned vessels to sculpted and constructed works. The Waterbury collection includes works by many prominent artists in the field, including William Hunter, Ron Kent, Michelle Holzapfel, Robyn Horn, Chris Boerner, David Ellsworth, Michael Mode, Derek Bencomo, Alan Stirt, Hayley Smith, and Todd Hoyer.

David and Ruth Waterbury just published a major hard cover book in June, 2011, entitled, Conversations With Wood, to profile and document their one-of-a-kind woodturning collection of over 500 pieces. The book profiles each unique piece from the artist's perspective, addressing the type of wood selected and why, as well as other personal comments regarding the creation of each piece.
