Now showing at the Katonah Museum of Art in Katonah, NY is Beyond the Bed, The American Quilt Evolution. This exhibit traces the dynamic evolution of the North American quilt - in form, fashion, and function - from the beginning of the 19th century to the present day.
Guest Curator, Jean Burks, has assembled some of the finest quilts intended as bed coverings, articles of clothing, furniture accessories, wall decoration, and three-dimensional sculptures. The quilts on display represent many different techniques and six of the quilts were included in the book and exhibit of "The Twentieth Century's Best 100 American Quilts."
The exhibit is in the Beitzel and Righter Galleries from February 24 - June 16, 2013.
