Yinka Shonibare CBE RA features in 'Fabric'
‘Fabric: Textile as Artistic Material’ explores the role of textiles in art from classical modernism to the present. It poses fabric as the material most intimately entwined with our everyday experiences, tracing its iterations of tulle, lace, weaving and cloth. In this group exhibition, textile works are collected to address the sensual, emotional and personal, and cultural, economic and political trappings of textile.
Artists featured include Magdelena Abakanowicz, Anni Albers, Caroline Achaintre, Sheila Hicks and Yinka Shonibare CBE RA.
The exhibition was previously on display at Kunsthalle Vogelmann, Helibronn, Germany.
