RE: Anni Albers – Exhibition at Tate Modern
@shanibeer thanks for sharing Annie Albers' work! I wasn't familiar with her. Beautiful and inspiring! The embroidery folios are beautiful in a different way, though I get what you mean a little about similarities. For me, textile crafts have such dimension. You can feel them just by looking. I experienced that a lot in the Alber pieces. Also, I love her weavings featuring squares. I wonder if she became inspired to do them after sorting through her sample swatches like the folios from the embroidery guild.
I'm really glad you appreciated the post. For me, it's something about becoming immersed and in some way the folio samples and her tapestries are connected. You must also look at @neumannsalva's post about her sculpture - It is molten, Henrietta, run.
