"The compilation of this fifth Rijswijk Textile Biennial [...]" - Foreword, Seite 7
Beschreibung:
Twenty-four international artists will be showing their fibre art. ?Well-worn? textile techniques like weaving, knitting and embroidery, combined with photography and digital processes, are used to express social and political themes, as well as personal stories. Powerful statements about oppression, terrorism, ageing and gender are wrapped in soft textiles. Art that poses questions. Questions that need not be answered right away. ?Fabric? for thought. 00The Textile Biennials at Museum Rijswijk have grown into internationally renowned exhibitions in the world of fibre art. This fifth biennial is no exception. The selected artists are at the forefront in their innovative uses of fibre and textile to express powerful messages with potent imagery.00Exhibition: Museum Rijswijk, The Netherlands (16.05. -24.09.2017)
