There&#8217;s also a re-creation of his studio in one corner of the space, with shelves containing instantly recognizable Adler pieces, a pottery wheel manned by a fittingly multicolored mannequin standing nearby and a cork board lined with personal photos presiding over the whole thing. It\u2019s a convincing assortment that adds a sense of personality and warmth to the exhibition space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other pieces in the show are categorized according to Adler&#8217;s eight obsessions, including &#8220;Authentica,&#8221; comprising works inspired by mid-century ceramics, a well-known fixation of his; and &#8220;Animalia.&#8221; This is the designer&#8217;s first curatorial foray, and he pulled together roughly 300 objects for it, including 60 from the museum\u2019s permanent collection.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"713\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-950x713.jpeg\" alt=\"A sculpture of a frog with bagels, donuts, and a coffee cup perched on his head on a plinth, with shelves of additional pottery pieces on view behind it. \" class=\"wp-image-429285\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-950x713.jpeg 950w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-467x350.jpeg 467w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-120x90.jpeg 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JonathanAdlerMAD2-1244x933.jpeg 1244w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/david-gilhooly\/\">David Gilhooly<\/a>&#8216;s <em>Bread Frog as Coffee Break<\/em> on view at MAD.
