Very happy and proud to be a part of the 10th international triennial of mini-textiles. From December 15 2012 to Monday till May 20 2013 in Angers, France.
“For the seventh consecutive edition in Angers, Jean-Lurçat museum and contemporary tapestry organizes this winter, the 10th international triennial of mini-textiles. The theme for the artists is “Too web or not to web” / “Too canvas or not.”
For over fifteen years, the city of Angers and its museum of contemporary tapestry offer this appointment expected between contemporary textiles and the public.
Each artist presents a work made from wire or its symbolic dimension which must not exceed 12 x 12 x 12 cm (surface or volume).
Modesty format combines with the talent and diversity of famous artists and become young and old come together.
A jury of artists, experts, teachers, curators, met and selected 68 works that make up this exhibition, among 462 proposals. Over 20 countries are represented.”
In the last weekend was a festive visit of Sinteklass in Amsterdam. Was clear, beautiful day, not even so cold for this time of the year. Lots of smiles, sweets and pepernoten…
What a week it was! started with my work featured at Design sponge(with wonderful works by Kate Pruitt), later in “Things Organized Neatly” and ended at “collectif textile“. And at the very end of the week- my birthday. (on that, on the coming post…:-). -thank you all very much!
and a bit of autumn also arrived this week in full glory …
The Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (less than 10 minutes walk from my house..so nice) is reopened after almost 8 years (!) of renovations. Beautiful building, exciting exhibitions.
In the ground floor I got completely excited from the exhibition and the display about Dutch design. In one of the rooms were lots of hidden articles in big drawers full of wonderful, inspiring objects – jewellery, toys, graphic,furniture, textile, … In the Second floor, contemporary art- again- great exhibitions.
All together it was worth waiting for. Take your time there -its big! and one warning: stay away from the restaurant/cafe (over priced,bad service).
