Master the art of discernment in this seminar led by textile arts legend Andrea Aranow. Aranow will focus on transformations in modern Japanese textile design & fabrications in the first half of the 20th century, and the impact of Western art and fashion aesthetics on this tradition. Participants will be invited to view and handle examples of kimono cloth that uses cotton, silk, and bast fibers to suit seasonal modes. Learn more about kimono in your collection by bringing one garment to the seminar for consideration!
