Description

At this year’s Independent 20th Century, Alison Jacques presents Time Trembling, a solo exhibition of work spanning 1958-1970 by renowned American artist Lenore Tawney (1907-2007).

Tawney is best known for her woven sculptural forms, however, this presentation will also showcase other consistent series of work Tawney made throughout her 50-year career, including drawings, collages and assemblage sculptures. This overview will illustrate Tawney’s multi-faceted practice, which charted a unique path in fiber art, linking Bauhaus ideas with Amerindian impulses with Taoist concepts of space.
