Step back to 1971 with Keith Edmier’s full-scale replica of the kitchen from his childhood home—a major artwork in the exhibition Lifelike, opening February 25. The artist, who painstakingly sourced and fabricated the tiles, wallpaper, and furniture, talks about the art and craft of restaging “real” interiors with decorative arts curator Jennifer Komar Olivarez, who oversees the Minneapolis Institute of Arts’ period rooms as well as its 1913 Purcell-Cutts House.
