Guest Lecture by Ann Lane Hedlund<\/span><\/strong>, “The Desert Tapestries of Louise Nevelson: 1972-1997,” Wednesday, November 14<\/strong> at 7 p.m. in Tucson, Arizona.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Hedlund <\/span><\/strong>will present a richly illustrated talk about a unique series of handwoven tapestries designed by world renowned sculptor\/collagist Louise Nevelson, orchestrated by Gloria F. Ross, and woven under the direction of Archie Brennan at the Dovecot Studies in Edinburgh, Scotland. The translation of Nevelson\u2019s torn paper collages into large-scale woven works represents an intriguing collaboration. <\/span>Inspired by a visit from the East Coast artist to the American Southwest,<\/span> the resulting <\/span>artworks were evocatively named \u201cDesert\u201d (MFA-Boston), \u201cDusk in the Desert,\u201d \u201cLandscape,\u201d \u201cMirror Desert,\u201d \u201cNight Mountain,\u201d \u201cReflection,\u201d and \u201cThe Late, Late Moon.\u201d These are also illustrated and described in Hedlund\u2019s 2010 book, Gloria F. Ross & Modern Tapestry<\/em> (Yale University Press).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
