“Walk This Way” On View At Michener Art Museum
Walk This Way: Footwear from the Stuart Weitzman Collection of Historic Shoes has opened at the James Michener Art Museum in Doylestown, Pa. Presenting more than 100 pairs of shoes from the extensive private collection of iconic designer Stuart Weitzman and businesswoman Jane Gershon Weitzman, the exhibition runs through Jan. 15, 2023.
Focused on the women who designed, manufactured, sold, and collected footwear, the exhibit explores how shoes have transcended their utilitarian purpose to become representations of culture, coveted as objects of desire, designed with artistic consideration, and expressing complicated meanings of femininity, power, and aspiration.
This exhibition has been organized by the New-York Historical Society.
The James Michener Art Museum is located at 138 S. Pine St. in Doylestown, Pa.
