Fibers National Juried Exhibit | CALL FOR ART

Material Matters | National Juried Exhibit
Deadline to enter: August 13, 2014  
Exhibit Dates: September  24 - October 25, 2014

Union Street Gallery invites artists from all over the nation working in fibers and textiles to submit work to our 2014 fall national juried exhibit Material Matters. We are looking for a broad range of fiber and textile art, from traditional to unconventional. Our goal for this exhibit is to celebrate the range of the medium but also spark conversation about craft versus fine art and how we define fiber art in the art world today. All forms of fiber art and textile art will be considered.  

Jurors:
Kraig Rasmussen, curator for the gallery at the Textile Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota.www.textilecentermn.org;   www.kraigthayerrasmussen.com

Joan Livingstone, professional fiber artist, professor and chair for the Fiber and Material Studies Department at the Art Institute of Chicago.www.joanlivingstone.com;   www.saic.edu/academics/departments/fiber/faculty
