Tapestry offered artists a historically grounded medium for distributing and marketing their work, helped expand the visibility and significance of abstraction at midcentury, and facilitated modernism's entry into the dominant paradigm of the postwar period. K. L. H. Wells situates tapestry as part of a broader "marketplace modernism" in which artists participated, conjuring a lived experience of visual culture in corporate lobbies, churches, and even airplanes, as well as in galleries and private homes. This extensively researched study features previously unpublished illustrations and little-known works by such major artists as Helen Frankenthaler, Henri Matisse, Robert Motherwell, Pablo Picasso, and Frank Stella. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 249-256) and index. 650 0 $a Tapestry $x History $y 20th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85132409 650 0 $a Modernism (Art) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85086445 650 0 $a Painting, Modern $y 20th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85096801 650 7 $a Painting, Modern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01050988 650 7 $a Tapestry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01142985 651 7 $a France. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213022546.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4184C8500CF611EA99B9112E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
