Three New Art Quilt Exhibits: Seattle, Wisconsin & South Africa
Summer 2004 appears to be a good year for the art quilt - three major shows around the globe!
South African National Quilt Festival 2004 Quilt Competition Results. This exhibition features lots of categories ( scroll acroll the top of the page or down the left side) and small quilt images, which are clickable to get larger images of the quilts. Juried show
Art & Soul of Quilting Four pages of images with larger images available. Anderson Art Center, Kenosha, WI. Juried show
Art Quilts on the Ridge - A Summer Show of the Contemporary QuiltArt Association (Seattle, Washington) - Members Show
"Rather than stating a "theme" for this juried show up front, members were encouraged to enter their regular current style of work. Sometimes working to a requested theme for a show causes an artist to lose sight of their personal artistic vision. Here we see work by members of CQA that showcases the wide variety of styles and techniques in textile art that individuals have developed."
