Pushing the Surface Contemporary Quilt Exhibit

Event: Pushing the Surface Contemporary Quilt Exhibit
Where: Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum, 300 N. Whitewoman Street, Coshocton, OH
When: May 4—Aug. 11, 2013
Admission: Adults $4, Children $3
Phone: 740/ 622-8710

Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum Special Exhibit Pushing the Surface, JHM's biennial exhibition of contemporary quilts, will be displayed at the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum May 4 through Aug 11. The 22 works were selected because of their creativity, technical proficiency, and expressiveness. Although all the works share the basic structural characteristics of a quilt—joining at least two layers of fiber with stitching, they break from tradition in their design methods. Surfaces may be pieced and patched as one finds in a traditional quilt, but they may also be painted, dyed, laser printed, appliquéd or fused. The techniques are as varied as the subject matter, which is as varied as the effects. In the end the artists create a truly new statement that speaks to mind and spirit like all great art is meant to do.
