Topic: The Quilts of Gee's Bend
The once obscure quilts of Gee's Bend and the women who make them have made a deep impression on countless artists, the art world, and the vast audience of people who are now familiar with their work. What makes these quilts worthy of attention as works of art? What relationship can we find between their work and the work of other artists?
Consider bringing:
Books, postcards, reproductions of the quilts, work of other artists to compare them with, or any related images - conventional quilts, photographs, graphics, or other inspirations - that you think just might add to our discussion.
