Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley
About This Event
The Haas Brothers, a Los Angeles–based duo working across sculpture, furniture and object design, present Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley at the Museum of Arts and Design. The survey assembles sculptural projects that blur decorative and bodily registers, testing how design can behave like character and privileging material invention over tidy distinctions between art and use.
About Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley
At the Museum of Arts and Design, *Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley* surveys sculptural work by the Los Angeles duo whose practice sits between studio craft and industrial production. The exhibition centers on hybrid figures and unlikely surfaces, asking viewers to look closely at how materials are manipulated and how design language becomes character. In a New York context, MAD’s focus on craft makes the show read as a timely local case study in where contemporary sculpture now meets fabrication. One clear takeaway is how the work tests the limits of “functional” objects without abandoning them.
