Opening 11 April, You Stretched Diagonally Across It: Contemporary Tapestry<\/em> is a celebration of tapestry and its practitioners in the 21st century, offering a consideration of the strategies by which contemporary artists interrogate tactility and image in the age-old medium of tapestry in a current context. Featuring works by twenty-seven artists and designers, and organized by guest curator Su Wu, the exhibition depends, like the works that compel it, on an engagement with interstices specific to tapestry \u2013 between art and craft, the medium and the matter, and devotion and its technological mediation. Across monumental works of great detail, the exhibition expands our experiences of narrative and mythology in weaving, complicates traditional ethnographic associations of textile, and argues for the enduring possibility of image and memory as a physically substantive thing.

Exhibiting artists include: Caroline Achaintre, Hellen Ascoli, Yto Barrada, Diedrick Brackens, Melissa Cody, Negma Coy, Jovencio de la Paz, Josh Faught, Christina Forrer, Sanaa Gateja, Yann Gerstberger, Marie Hazard, Ane Henriksen, Kira Dominguez Hultgren, Suzanne Jackson, Sanam Khatabi, Tomasz Kowalski and Alicja Kowalska, ShinJa Lee, Candice Lin, Goshka Macuga, Christy Matson, Mai-Thu Perret, Sarah Rosalena, Analia Saban, Kiki Smith, Mika Tajima, Clarissa Tossin, Consuelo Jim\u00e9nez Underwood, and Miranda Fengyuan Zhang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To accompany the exhibition, Los Angeles-based vintage textile library and shop Kneeland Co. will take over and activate the Dallas Contemporary store, featuring specially designed ceramics, textiles, jewelry, and collectibles, for sale exclusively in the shop. All pieces are specially designed for and inspired by You Stretched Diagonally Across It<\/em>, and will even include works by artists featured in the exhibition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
