You Stretched Diagonally Across It: Contemporary Tapestry

You Stretched Diagonally Across It: Contemporary Tapestry is a taxonomical exploration of an age-old but recently vastly popular medium in art. Opening on the 11th of April, the show is Dallas Contemporary‘s addition to the recent trend of exhibitions calling up textile works from all over history. The Texan museum expertly weaves together a group of 31 material exhibitors, names of renown such as El Anatsui, Candice Lin, and Diedrick Brackens. The featured artists are known to experiment with and challenge the idea of fabric as an art medium, shining a spotlight on the age-old practice and redefining the conventional narratives that surround it.
