Sinossi

Nancy Crow: Drawings: Monoprints and Riffs is a beautifully illustrated catalog showcasing the newest work of renowned artist Nancy Crow. Over the last decade Crow has transformed her quiltmaking by developing a unique monoprinting technique. Monoprinting on cotton fabric, she focuses on drawn lines, layered one upon another, that result in a complex visual tangle. The work in this series simultaneously produces both clarity and depth.

In her Riff and Drawing: Riff series, Crow has continued to explore her &;drawing with fabric&; approach. In these works Crow improvisationally cuts through layers of highly saturated hand-dyed fabrics, creating crisp forms with slight curves and undulations caused by subtle movements of her arm, which are then stitched together in dynamic compositions.

This catalog includes Crow&;s descriptions of these innovative techniques as well as candid musings on her personal journey as a driven, passionate artist. In addition, Crow&;s work is discussed in an essay by Jean Robertson, Chancellor&;s Professor Emerita of Art History at the Herron School of Art and Design at Indiana University&;Purdue University. Also featured is a foreword by David Hornung, professor of art and art history at Adelphi University, New York. The catalog accompanies a 2020 exhibition of Crow&;s work at the International Quilt Museum, University of Nebraska&;Lincoln.
