Taos Art Opening April 3, 2009

This should be great.  If you are in town, go by to see some of the fabulous fiber arts.

Woven connections: Artists from 'Beyond the Fringe' explore nontraditional use of fiber

When reverence for artistic tradition meets raw passion, courageous innovation is born. "Beyond the Fringe," a fine fiber art exhibition featuring 13 local artists, is a celebration of this journey.

Curated by Merce Mitchell, the show opens with a reception Friday (April 3) from 5-7 p.m. at the Stables Gallery of the Taos Center for the Arts, 133 Paseo del Pueblo Norte.

It includes works by Mitchell, Abigail Z, Twilight, Nina Silfverberg, Carolyn Hinske, Kimberly Hamill, Lizzie Gulick, Faith Welsh, Connie Fernández, Mary K. Lyon, Pat Dozier, Noel Anderson and Violette Alby.
