| Description | The book illuminates the centrality of fiber to contemporary artistic practice. It describes the social dynamics, including the roles of race and gender, that determine how art has historically been defined and valued. The author explores the advance of fiber art from the 'low' world of craft to the 'high' world of art in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s. This provides background for today’s craft counterculture, DIY aesthetics and the importance of crafts in third-wave feminism. This change is analysed in the broader context of the art world and the impact of women’s art movement. Works of Eva Hesse, Robert Morris, Claire Zeisler, Miriam Schapiro, Faith Ringgold, Judy Chicago and others are presented. |
