Description
Nancy Crow Drawings: Monoprints and Riffs is a beautifully illustrated catalog showcasing Nancy Crow's latest work. Over the last decade, Crow has developed a unique monoprinting technique that transforms her quiltmaking. By layering drawn lines on cotton fabric, she creates complex visual tangles that produce both clarity and depth. Crow continues to explore her "drawing with fabric" approach in her Riff series, where she improvises through layers of highly saturated hand-dyed fabrics, creating crisp forms with subtle curves and undulations. This catalog includes Crow's descriptions of these innovative techniques, as well as candid musings on her personal journey as an artist. The book also features an essay by Jean Robertson, Chancellor's Professor Emerita of Art History at Indiana University-Purdue University, and a foreword by David Hornung, professor of art and art history at Adelphi University. The catalog accompanies the 2020 exhibition of Crow's work at the International Quilt Museum, University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
