Knoxville Museum of Art http://www.windrewindweave.com Exhibition at the Knoxville Museum of Art Exhibition at the Knoxville Museum of Art Visual artist Anne Wilson has been at the forefront of artwork connecting conceptualism and handiwork, activism and aesthetics, investigating new possibilities for what has been called "relational aesthetics." Wilson's practice extends the relational in terms of labor, collaboration, and identity construction, blending pedagogy with aesthetic production. Her work has been exhibited extensively including exhibitions at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art in Kanazawa, Japan; the Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; and as part of the 2002 Biennial at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Anne Wilson: Wind/Rewind/Weave is an exhibition organized by the Knoxville Museum of Art, installed by Wilson to investigate the crisis of production and skill based textile labor. Included is Rewinds, a new work created entirely in glass; video documentation of Wind-Up: Walking the Warp, a 2008 performance in Chicago; and a large site-specific project, Local Industry, that takes the form of an active weaving/winding factory set up in the museum space. Run over the course of several months, this project will involve the Knoxville community in the collaborative production of a unique bolt of cloth.

It was woven on a loom in the Fiber and Material Studies Department weaving studio at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in the summer of 2009. This sample follows the KMA "Guidelines for Weavers" and was accomplished by 8 weavers, weaving one after the other and never unwinding the cloth beam in between. The sample weavers are: Anne Larsen Anne Wilson Dan Wittenberg (lead weaver/warper) Emily Nachison Janette Ramirez (2nd lead weaver and instructor) Libby O'Byran Lynnette Miranda Rebecca Lothan http://www.windrewindweave.com/WilsonSampleWeaving09.pdf Fri, 1 Jan 2010 00:00:01 EST no Anne Wilson, Wind/Rewind/Weave, WindRewindWeave, Wind, Rewind, Weave, Art, Exhibition, Fiber, Textile, Knoxville Museum of Art
