California and the Fiber Art Revolution Suzanne Baizerman Imogene Gieling Curator of Crafts and Decorative Arts Oakland Museum of California Oakland, CA 510-238-3005 [email protected] In the 1960s and ‘70s, California artists participated in and influenced an international revolution in fiber art. The California Design (CD) exhibitions, a series held at the Pasadena Art Museum from 1955 to 1971 (and at another venue in 1976) captured the form and spirit of the transition from handwoven, designer textiles to two dimensional fiber art and sculpture.1 Initially, the California Design exhibits brought together manufactured and one-of-a kind hand-crafted objects, akin to the Good Design exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF COTTON AND RAYON GLASS CURTAIN FABRICS FLORENCE E PETZEL INTRODUCTION PURPOSE Through their questions and comments, consumers and other groups inter­ ested in textiles have evidenced considerable interest in the relative merits of cotton and rayon glass curtains. Therefore, it was the purpose of the present study to compare certain types of staple rayon and cotton glass curtain fabrics in terms of relative durability and serviceability. The cotton fabrics chosen included voile, scrim, marquisette, bobbinet, and :filet net; and the rayon fabrics were voile, ninon, and marquisette. NEED FOR TEE STUDY Difficulties of consumers in selection and eare.-Consumers encounter various problems in buying glass curtains. One difficulty arises from the fact that there are numerous and sometimes conflicting factors to be weighed in making a choice. Glass curtains may be used to give privacy while permitting a view of the out-of-doors, or they may serve to shut out an unpleasant view.

The Museum has appointed Edgar Kaufmann, Jr., Director of the activity. At the beginning of the program, Rene d'Harnoncourt, Director of the Museum, and Wallace O. Oilman, General Manager of The Mart, issued a joint statement: "It is the first time an art museum and wholesale merchandising center have co-operated to present the best examples of modern design in home furnishings. Now, at the mid-point of the century, these two national institutions, whose very different careers began just 20 years ago, believe and hope that in combining their resources they will stimulate the appreciation and creation of the best design among manufacturers, designers and retailers for good liv ing in the American home. Thus the attention of all America will be focused on the good things being created by the home furnishings industry." New items are selected for Good Design about six weeks before each main home furnishings market — Winter Market (early January) and Summer Market (mid-June).
  • Dictionary of Textiles by Harmuth Louis

    Dictionary of Textiles by Harmuth Louis

    PICTIONI\RY GIFT OF J DICTIONARY OF TEXTILES B Y LOUIS HARMUTH FASHION EDITOR OF "WOMEN'S WEAR" 1915 FAIRCHILD PUBLISHING COMPANY NEW YORK FAIRCHILD PUBIISHING CO, Copyright 1915. PREFACE The tendency in modern books of a technical character undoubtedly in- clines very strongly toward encyclopedic and dictionary forms. The cry for the saving of lime calls for books in compact form with information handy at a moment's notice. The present DICTIONARY is the result of 7'/2 years of collecting and compiling information, gained to a large extent in connection with my work on the Daily Trade Record and Women's Wear. With over 6,600 terms and definitions contained in it, this DICTIONARY is as nearly com- plete, in number of terms strictly relating to textile fibres and fabrics, as it is possible for a work of this kind to be. It was my desire to present in the DICTIONARY and within as small compass as practical the largest number of terms and definitions possible, re- lating to textiles from the fibres to the finished fabrics and everything which goes into them in the course of the manufacture. An interesting part of the DIC- TIONARY contains names of fabrics, now obsolete, with as complete a de- scription of their character as it was possible to find in various old laws, wills, lists and in the technical literature. Owing to the fact that manufacturers con- stantly have recourse to some obsolete fabric in search of new effects, details of manufacturing and finishing of such materials ought to be interesting.
