Indepth Arts News: "Contemporary Weaving and Contemporary Furniture" 2009-09-18 until 2009-10-31 Translations Gallery Denver, CO, USA United States of America
James Koehler's work is thoroughly rooted in the cultural traditions of the
American Southwest, yet is boldly contemporary, making him one of the most
sought out weavers in the southwest. He dyes his own wool to achieve vibrant
unique colors and does all of the weaving himself with a high quality of
craftsmanship. He continues to be influenced by the extraordinary landscape
and unique cultures of New Mexico and by certain aspects of the monastic
aesthetic--simplicity, purity, seeking and portraying only what is essential.
Anne Bossert creates furniture as the means to communicate her solid belief in
the profound beauty of the handmade. Each piece of furniture is hand-carved
and dyed by the artist and features hand-dyed, hand-woven cloth as a design
element. She deliberately uses Baltic birch plywood for its fine striations.
Her palettes are subtle to bold as well as contemporary and sophisticated.
