Gloria F. Ross (1923-1998) described her work as the translation of
paint into wool. She was deeply committed to reinventing the
centuries-old art of tapestry, particularly championing the
handmade in contemporary art. This remarkable book, written by
textile scholar Ann Lane Hedlund, draws from rare unpublished
archives to unravel the evolution of Ross's modern tapestries and
to illuminate the significance of her creative partnerships. Gloria
F. Ross and Modern Tapestry features the collaborative work of 28
acclaimed modernist painters and sculptors, including Helen
Frankenthaler (Ross's sister), Kenneth Noland, and Louise Nevelson,
with several dozen traditional-yet-innovative weavers in France,
Scotland, and the Southwestern United States. Brief biographies of
the artists, letters, notes, sketches, and photographs illustrate
the practical and aesthetic challenges that occupied Gloria Ross
for over three decades. Distributed for the University of Arizona
