Weaving, embroidery, quiltmaking and other forms of textile production have often been considered as utilitarian or domestic and, in their association with women, less prestigious than painting and other art forms. This four-session class will look at the history of textile production by women and ways in which feminist art history, (such as Rozika Parker's The Subversive Stitch), and contemporary artists have revisited this history and incorporated textiles into mainstream art. Please register for this class if you plan to join the class in person.
