AXIOM

Three artists rooted in process associated with artisan-ship who accept some tenants of that history while pushing their discipline’s dynamic possibilities in their distinctive artistic voices. All three share a relationship to textile processes, a commonality of their friendships and camaraderie. Their work, rooted in an exuberant materiality, composite surface and illusionary space, extend fixed viewpoints of craft into expanded poetic exploration. Artists: Frank Connet, Lialia Kuchma, Anne McGinn Curator: Doug Stapleton October 7 – December 4, 2016 at Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art in Chicago
