520    Fiber: Sculpture 1960-present is the first exhibition in 
       over forty years to examine the development of abstraction
       and dimensionality in fiber art from the mid-twentieth 
       traditional materials, artists working in fiber manipulate
       gravity, light, color, mass, and transparency to 
       demonstrate the infinite transformations of the material. 
       Early pioneers such as Magdalena Abakanowicz, Sheila Hicks,
       and Lenore Tawney spearheaded a revolutionary redefinition
       of fiber in the 1960s and '70s, showcasing radical, 
       nonrepresentational forms. Fiber: Sculture 1960-present 
       features artworks that range from small-scale weavings to 
       immersive environments. This book includes a range of 
       texts on weavings associated with craft to off-loom 
       sculptures aligned with mainstream art movements; a 
       provocative investigation into the notion of softness in 
       art; an examination of fiber art and its historical 
       predecessor, tapestry, in relation to site-specificity; an
       account of the exhibitions and, finally, a section of 
       concise essays that survey the distinctive contributions 
       of individual practitioners. -- from dust jacket.
