UNRAVEL: THE POWER AND POLITICS OF TEXTILES IN ART
Barbican Art Gallery London, 13 February – 26 May 2024
Why is it that textiles, in particular, offer so many metaphorical and political possibilities, ranging from the material they’re made of, the form they appear in, the messages they convey (either stridently in protest or subtlety coded in thread or fabric), the intention of their makers and the response of their viewers, and the place where they’re displayed? Unravel: The Power and Politics of Textiles, the new gargantuan exhibition at the Barbican, thrillingly responds to this question in a focused survey of international textile practice from the 1960s to the present day. Its variety is breathtaking.
