Emerson Bailey debuts Shared Ground, a gallery-to-gallery collaboration with Shiprock Santa Fe, the preeminent Indigenous arts gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
The exhibition brings together 19th-century European and Indigenous art and design, revealing how makers of the same generation across continents navigated commerce and tradition while sustaining their cultural identities.
Spanning Northern Europe and the American Southwest, these objects share a temporal and generational connection: crafted in the same century, they reflect contemporaneous practices of regional production, trade, and adaptation, offering a unique lens through which to explore the global craft of the 1800s. Presented in Bozeman, Montana, founded as a U.S. territory during the 19th century and now an increasingly international design destination, the exhibition gains additional resonance.

About
Emerson Bailey Gallery
Emerson Bailey is an interior design studio with an exclusive gallery program showcasing a curation of the world’s most sought-after European antiques alongside mid-century and contemporary design. Helmed by Susan Weiss, Emerson Bailey offers a distinctive interiors practice that blends design expertise with art and object curation, creating spaces that are as functional as they are evocative. With a deep understanding of historical and contemporary aesthetics, the studio collaborates with clients to craft interiors that feel timeless, layered, and deeply personal. Emerson Bailey approaches interior design as a narrative, where each piece—whether an 18th-century Gustavian cabinet or a modernist sculptural chair—contributes to a rich and meaningful composition. Founded in 2016, the gallery arms’s extraordinary and approachable display of rare historic works alongside vintage and contemporary design has made Emerson Bailey a national destination for clients to explore the often inaccessible world of fine antiques.
