SUMMARY:Celebrate Día de los Muertos at the Panorama City Branch Library!
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled to participate in FIBER:\nThis international exhibition seeks to showcase the best of contemporary fiber art that reflect the breadth of functional or non-functional works that use fiber and/or fiber art techniques in traditional or innovative ways. Artwork in this exhibition may be made from natural or high tech materials that reference fiber and that blur the lines between art\, architecture and craft. \n Opening Reception on Saturday\, May 17\, 5-7pm\n \nCurators:\nTom Grotta and Rhonda Brown\n\n\nTom and Rhonda have showcased modern fiber art since the 1980s\, championing fiber art’s evolution and future. Representing over 100 artists from 25 countries\, the gallery’s exhibitions\, art fairs\, and partnerships with museums have placed works in prestigious collections like the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Smithsonian’s Renwick Gallery. Tom\, a Rochester Institute of Technology graduate\, is renowned for his photography of fiber art and knowledge of contemporary textiles. Rhonda’s background as a lawyer and writer informs her editorial leadership at browngrotta arts.
