Wharton Esherick Studio, Art museum and National Historic Landmark in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
The studio complex spans 5.5 acres with five structures, including the main studio, a workshop designed with Louis Kahn, and a German Expressionist log garage.
The studio, constructed between 1926 and 1966, transformed from an Arts and Crafts style through German Expressionism to Modernist design under Wharton Esherick's direction.
The museum maintains over 300 pieces of Esherick's work, displaying sculptures, furniture, furnishings, paintings, and prints in their original setting.
Visitors can explore the museum through guided tours, which require advance reservations to access the studio and surrounding grounds.
Each building on the property demonstrates Esherick's architectural evolution, incorporating local materials and innovative techniques to create functional artistic spaces.
