Changing Landscapes: Contemporary Chinese Fiber Art

Two visually stunning exhibitions open the 2012 season at The Dayton Art Institute: Changing Landscapes: Contemporary Chinese Fiber Art and Maya Lin: Flow, both on view March 24 - June 17. Changing Landscapes is the first exhibition of contemporary Chinese fiber art to travel to the United States and features 45 works by 48 artists. Co-curated by Ni Yue-Hong, a professor at the Fiber Arts Institute of the Academy of the Arts & Design at Tsinghua University in Beijing and Deborah Corsini, curator of The San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles, Changing Landscapes showcases works from five biennial international fiber art exhibitions organized and hosted by Tsinghua University. The exhibition represents a snapshot of how three generations of artists working in fiber media are documenting, navigating, and responding to the tremendous economic, political, and social changes that have transformed China over the past decade.

Admission price includes admission to both exhibitions, plus the DAI's permanent collection.
