Entanglements

Zusatztext

In US-American art of the 1970s exhibitions, pictures, objects, installations, and videos use textile materials and techniques or negotiate them as a subject: artistic approaches to textiles thematize their art and media history in the textile medium. In doing so, they do not seek integration into a canon, but rather discuss the extent to which the separately conceived spheres of free and applied art, established genres and the marginalized textile are historically and currently entangled anyway. The title-giving term refers to the ever-present gender connotation of textiles, but also to the entanglements of textile works with other art movements of the same period, video art and appropriation art, which are traced in the study.
