PRATT SCHOOL OF DESIGN PRESENTS: TEXTILE THINKING
September 15-30, 2018
Artist Talk: September 30, 3 - 4pm
The exhibition “Textile Thinking” highlights the vibrant and provocative conversations that the faculty and students of the School of Design participate in while interrogating textiles. The field of textiles is a wellspring of inspiration to both the fashion, product and interior design program’s material explorations and theoretical thinking.
As they work outside of the academic structure of a traditional textile program, the students and faculty at the School of Design bring energy, focus and a pragmatic naiveté to the subject of textiles. The exhibition illustrates this conversation through student course work and selected professors’ theoretical and professional endeavors relating to textiles.
Location:
Textile Arts Center
TAC Project Space
505 Carroll Street
Brooklyn, NY 11215
Gallery Hours:
Saturday-Thursday, 11AM-6PM and by appointment.
*Friday Hours are TBD*

The Contemporary Textiles Fair is a well-established, high quality and highly regarded event, held in the magnificent Grade II* gothic surroundings of the Landmark Arts Centre in Teddington, South-West London.
The fair is almost unique in its focus on textile artists & designer makers, unencumbered by suppliers, DIY kits, and other craft disciplines. It is this clear focus, together with the unique setting and returning visitors that make this event both enjoyable and successful, year after year.
The Contemporary Textiles Fair is somewhere textile enthusiasts, collectors and art lovers can come to find artworks with texture, wearable masterpieces, handmade homeware, and unique curiosities. This isn’t granny’s knitted teacosy territory, this is contemporary quality! From stitched wall-hangings with conceptual significance, to carefully designed and hand-crafted objects; this fair does not discriminate – the art/craft barrier fades away to reveal exceptional talent in textiles.
CRITERIA
The criteria for applications is the same for all of the Landmark’s art fairs: individual textile artists and designer-makers whose work demonstrates creativity, innovation and quality, balancing the tactile and functional with the aesthetic. Please note that there is a selection process and, in the interest of keeping the show fresh, a ‘three year’ rule may apply; i.e if you have exhibited for three years in a row you may not be selected for one or two years.
This year there are a limited number of stands being offered at a reduced rate to students and recent graduates. Please refer to the FAQ's and state the Raw Fibres option in the Stand Choices section of the application form.
