Fibration, New York Textile Month’s main exhibition, explores the modern fiber arts scene while contemplating the American craft revival movement today.
As many of us know, to be in the presence of a work of art is to be present with your whole body. One doesn’t just look, one feels. This is especially true for those whose artwork has become so well known that we think we know it because of all the times we’ve seen its image reproduced. Artists understand this predicament with acute sensibility. For this reason, we asked a few artists to respond to the paintings of master Philip Guston at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC. We re honored to share their luminous responses below.
