Radical Lace & Subversive Knitting

February 9, 2007 |

Radical Lace & Subversive Knitting is the name of the current exhibit at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City, NY. The exhibit runs January 25 - June17, 2007. List of artists in this exhibit can be found here - artists.

This exhibit showcases work by international artists using fiber in unexpected and unorthodox ways. The exhibit features 27 artists from seven countries, showcasing microknit garments (1:144 scale) to large-scale, all exhibits using a variety of media, from traditional yarns and laces, to found objects and video.

While at the exhibit, stop in one of the many Inter-Generational Workshops running every weekend in conjunction with Radical Lace & Subversive Knitting. These workshops will focus on a different material exploration every week. They promise to get your hands dirty!

There will also be Public Programs that will run in conjunction with the exhibition. Some of the more interesting programs (at least to me) are:
