From Saturday, November 9, Mitsuko Asakura's artworks will be on show at the the group exhibition 'The Lady and the Unicorn: New Tapestry' at Salon 94 (New York, USA).
'The Lady and the Unicorn: New Tapestry' at Salon 94 unites eight contemporary living artists from six countries who have turned to tapestry in artworks which expand beyond its original function and methods of display. No longer solely affixed to a wall and viewable from one plane, these new tapestries in silk, wool, linen, flora, leather, steel, and brass cascade, float, soar, and envelop, encouraging us to approach this richly historic tradition with new eyes as each artist imbues their work with both the histories and contemporary concerns of their unique lived realities.
Exhibiting Artists: Mitsuko Asakura (Japan), Felix Beaudry (USA), Margaret Rarru Garrawurra (Eastern Arnhem Land, Australia), Porfirio Gutiérrez (Mexico), Adeline Halot (Belgium), Bárbara Sánchez-Kane (Mexico), Sagarika Sundaram (India), and Qualeasha Wood (USA).
