Printed Textiles: Pattern Stories

June 15 – August 25, 2013

Curatorial Tour: Thursday, June 27, 6pm

This exhibition will showcase printed textiles selected from GMD’s collection for their exuberant design impact and their stories. These stories include printed textiles as reflections of popular culture, as evidence of humans’ unending fascination with flowers, as fanciful imitations of other textile techniques, and as individual expressions of artists and designers both known and anonymous. 

Jean McElvain and Kathleen Campbell, GMD, exhibition curators.

Exhibition Support:  Surface Design Association, Banner Creations, Fabric Graphics Association, and a grant from the Summer Music Festival at Northrop, presented by Northrop Concerts and Lectures at the University of Minnesota.
