American Tapestry Biennial XV
Since 1996, ATA has sponsored a biennial, juried exhibition known as the American Tapestry Biennial. This juried exhibition highlights the best of contemporary hand-woven tapestry featuring work by artists from across the U.S. exploring the many artistic possibilities of the medium. Work in the exhibition includes not only artists who work within more traditional definitions of tapestry but also those artists whose work expands upon the core principles of the medium as it explores new techniques and processes.
The exhibition is accompanied by the Teitelbaum Award which recognizes two outstanding contributions to the field. Lialia Kuchma, a Chicago artist living and working in Ukrainian Village, was awarded first place for her work titled, Ukraine War #4, which reflects upon her home-country鈥檚 struggle. Dance Doyle received second place for her work, Tempest, which breaks from the traditional rectangular format of the woven structure and materials as it contains various objects including necklaces, feathers, and other materials.
