The annual New Legacies Contemporary Art Quilts exhibit at the Fort Collins Lincoln Center opens this week and I am honored to have 2 of my textile paintings included again in this year’s show.
It seems that this is also my summer of media fame, as I was invited by a local newspaper reporter to share my thoughts about the use of quilts as “art” as well as what I think attendees will find most interesting about this show. The article called “Fabricating Fresh Art” was published last Friday but isn’t available online. Here’s a scanned version if you’re interested:
This year’s show includes 47 quilts and will be open July 9 – Aug 31. There’s also an opening reception this coming Friday night, July 12 from 5-7 pm and I’m planning to attend. Here’s the invite for the opening, a little nudge to encourage you to join me.
Congrats for the exhibition. Your contemporary art quilts are brilliant. Wish I could be able to view them in person.
Thanks Terriea, I admire your work as well and enjoy seeing your process. Even though I’m not able to see your work in person, you do a great job with your photos, so that is the next best thing.
