Sleight of Hand closed on November 25, 2013. This visually interactive exhibition presented 14 contemporary artists, born between the 1930s and 1960s. Their works surprise the eye while challenging and intriguing our powers of perception.
These masters of alchemy transform materials ranging from anticipated to astonishing. Using time-honored textile techniques—embroidery, quilting, weaving, netting, crochet, coiling and ikat—the artists push them to unexpected extremes, or they invent new methods to achieve their creative vision. Ranging from Pop Art to present day, the sculptures, paintings, and imagery achieved by their magic span more than 30 years of creativity.
