In the 1970s and 80s, a daring group of artists rebelled against minimalism and conceptual art to reclaim what had become taboo in fine art: ornament, pattern, and craft. Embellish Me showcases the diverse works made by artists including Miriam Schapiro, Robert Kushner, Valerie Jaudon, Robert Zakanitch, Lucas Samaras, Ned Smyth, and Joyce Kozloff.
Throughout the exhibition, visitors will be greeted by vividly painted canvases, detailed embroidery, shimmering gold foil, and intricate mosaics. Impacted by the women’s movement, some artists created exquisitely adorned paintings and sculptures that engaged with craft traditions and materials typically associated with domestic spaces.
