Beyond the Surface: Printed Textiles in Contemporary Art Schweinfurth Art Center August-October 2024

Leaning In, 2017,  33 x 44, thickened dye printed on canvas


Beyond the Surface: Contemporary Artists and Printed Textiles featured more than seventy-five works by a diverse group of eight American artists who challenge conventional expectations of printed textiles within contemporary art. Using various techniques and materials, these artists transform fabric-based prints into meditations on personal, political, and social conditions. Their work expands notions of what a printed textile is and can be within a fine art context, revealing the possibilities for conceptual expression and meaning that uniquely exist in the overlap between media.
