Fiberart Intenational
Fiberart International 2007 is the 19th in a series of triennial juried exhibitions sponsored by the Fiberarts Guild of Pittsburgh, Inc. Chosen by a distinguished panel of artists and curators, Fiberart International 2007 features works by established and emerging artists and provides a unique opportunity to see current trends and innovations in this constantly evolving medium.
Fiberart International 2007 presents a broad range of innovative contemporary art in fiber to the public. Since 1997, the exhibition has been held at two prestigious arts organizations, the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts and the Society for Contemporary Craft. The exhibition includes works by artists from across the world, selected by a panel of three jurors recognized in the field. Cash awards totaling $4000 will be made by the Fiberarts Guild, Inc., corporate and private donors. In addition to the catalog, some of the educational components of the project include a docent program and a conference featuring Fiberart International artists. Adjunct exhibitions of work by regional fiber artists are held concurrently at a number of galleries in and around Pittsburgh.
Fiberart International 2007 is open to the public from April 14rd to August 19th, 2007 at the Society for Contemporary Craft and the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts, PA.
