This trailblazing Gloucester, Massachusetts-based group produced more than three hundred distinct designs, which they block printed on fabric. The designs conveyed personal and regional narratives through the use of shared design principles and the compelling language of pattern. The group was propelled to international fame through commercial contracts with major retailers (F. Schumacher, Lord & Taylor, etc.), articles in leading periodicals such as Life, and participation in seminal fine craft exhibitions. Their work continues to inspire contemporary printmakers around the globe, particularly women printmakers. As the first comprehensive history of the Folly Cove Designers, Trailblazing Women Printmakers documents and celebrates the group's tremendous success and the incredible artistry of its members." 600 10 $a Burton, Virginia Lee, $d 1909-1968. 650 0 $a Folly Cove Designers (Group of artists) $x History. 650 0 $a Women printmakers $z United States. 650 0 $a Printmakers $z United States. 650 0 $a Prints $z United States $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Prints, American $y 20th century. 650 7 $a HISTORY / Women. $2 bisacsh. 600 17 $a Burton, Virginia Lee, $d 1909-1968 $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00011390. 650 7 $a Folly Cove Designers (Group of artists) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00930399. 650 7 $a Printmakers $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076809. 650 7 $a Prints, American $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076848. 650 7 $a Prints $x Technique $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01076838. 650 7 $a Women printmakers $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178397. 651 7 $a United States $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155. 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast. 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628. 941 $a 1 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240104011825.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC6BAB7AAAD011EE853AF3262BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
