Publisher's Note
The last several decades of this century have seen an explosion in the design of the art quilt--textile fields of flat and sculptural design. THE ART QUILT is a magnificently illustrated book that celebrates this exquisite art form--now freed from the conventional boundaries of its roots in practical Americana. 300 color photos. 10 b&w photos.

Industry Reviews
Shaw, former curator of the Shelburne Museum and author of Quilts: A Living Tradition (LJ 2/1/96) and Hawaiian Quilt Masterpieces (LJ 4/15/97), has gathered more than 300 quilts created by 200 different artists from around the world in this beautifully illustrated oversized work. Not seeking to replicate quilting traditions of the past, these artists quilt in a dramatic, intense, and detailed manner using a variety of innovative studio techniques that are quite different from those used on historic quilts. While possessing the same structural characteristics of traditional quilts, this artistic medium relates more to contemporary craft and modern art and is designed to be hung on walls and viewed like paintings. Abstract quilts, narrative and figurative quilts, and nature and landscape quilts are all discussed in terms of composition and visual impact. This study of the quilt-maker as artist is recommended for both contemporary art and textile collections. Judith Yankeilun Lind, Roseland Free P.L., NJ
