    1 Studies in Material Thinking, http://www.materialthinking.org Vol. 4 (September 2010), ISSN 1177-6234, AUT University Copyright © Studies in Material Thinking and the author. Cresside Collette Tutor in Tapestry Weaving and Drawing School of Fashion and Textiles RMIT University [email protected] Abstract Since Mediaeval times drawing has been the foundation for and the integrated content of woven tapestry. This paper traces the evolution of a rich, colourful, tactile medium in response to the drawn image, the shift in importance of the weaver as artist within the process, and the emergence of Tapestry as a Contemporary art form in its own right. Keywords Drawing, Tapestry, Cartoon, Artist, Weaver. “Found in Translation – the transformative role of Drawing in the realisation of Tapestry.” Introduction A bold definition of tapestry is that it is a woven work of art. It carries an image, made possible by virtue of what is known as discontinuous weft, i.e. the weft is built up in small shapes rather than running in continuous rows across the warp. The structure of the material comprises warp (vertical) and weft (horizontal) threads. Hand woven on a loom, the weft yarn generally covers the warp, resulting in a weft - faced fabric. The design, which is woven into the fabric, forms an integral part of the textile as the artist/weaver constructs the image and surface simultaneously. Of all the textile arts, tapestry is the medium that finds its form and expression most directly in the drawn line. Drawing is the thread, both literally and metaphorically, that enables the existence of woven tapestry and it has played both a supporting and a didactic role in the realisation of this image - based form.

Since the day it was finished, art students have journeyed to Milan to view the work, which takes up a refectory wall in a Dominican convent next to the church of Santa Maria delle Grazie. The 20th-century writer Aldous Huxley called it “the saddest work of art in the world”: he was referring not to the impact of the scene – the moment when Christ tells his disciples “one of you will betray me” – but to the fresco’s state of deterioration.

  • Dear Friends, I Am Pleased to Announce That Father Michael

    Dear Friends, I Am Pleased to Announce That Father Michael

    Dear friends, I am pleased to announce that Father Michael Brunner, O.S.B. has been appointed the Prior-Administrator (interim superior) of Portsmouth Abbey in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. As you may recall, I was appointed to serve in this role last year, several months before my abbatial election at Saint Louis Abbey, and I have been doing so while continuing with my responsibilities here. Abbot Christo- pher Jamison, O.S.B., the Abbot President of our English Benedictine Congregation, appointed Father Michael to his new role with my blessing. I am confident that Father Michael will serve God, Portsmouth Abbey and Saint Louis Abbey well in this role. Father Michael has been serving both on the Council of Portsmouth Abbey and on the Board of Regents of Portsmouth Abbey School, and he is very familiar with the Portsmouth Abbey community. As you may recall, the monks of Portsmouth Abbey, who have been decreasing in number and increas- ing in age, have asked for the monks of Saint Louis Abbey to help reinvigorate their monastery by send- ing a small group of our monks to live there. In response to their request, the monks of Saint Louis Ab- bey agreed to enter into a collaboration with Portsmouth Abbey in which Saint Louis Abbey would send monks to Portsmouth for various periods of time to support them in their monastic life. At present, two monks of Saint Louis Abbey — Father Francis Hein, O.S.B. and Father Edward Mazuski, O.S.B. — re- side at Portsmouth Abbey. Father Michael will take up residence at Portsmouth Abbey in the months to come, once he is able to transition to others his responsibilities as Pastor of Saint Anselm Parish and as a teacher at Saint Louis Priory School.

    TUSCAN WANDERLUST 2015 Ability Level: Beginner / Duration: 9 Days / 8 Nights

    COLORADO COLLEGE TUSCAN WANDERLUST 2015 Ability Level: Beginner / Duration: 9 Days / 8 Nights Tuscan Wanderlust Created Exclusively for Colorado College Dear Alumni, Parents and Friends of Colorado College, Join European History Professor Susan Ashley for an exclusive 9-day guided light hiking and walking tour that showcases the best of Tuscany scheduled for Spring 2015! You begin in Florence and spend the night at a beautiful hotel in the hills of Fiesole. Head off the beaten path and explore picture-perfect hilltop towns and ancient abbeys. From the Umbrian border, stroll past abundant valleys, glowing meadows of irises, fields laced with vineyards and extraordinary clay dunes. Each day’s leisurely pace is interspersed with samplings of local specialties and conversations with Italians who share their heritage as we roam the cypress-lined roads. Continue in the southern part of Tuscany, known as the Val d’Orcia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We’ll discover the towns of Pienza with its charming alleys lined with small pecorino cheese shops, artisan workshops and centuries-old palaces, Montalcino, a fortress dominating the view on the surrounding hills, and of course the vineyards of Brunello red wine. The last part of the tour will bring us to the “Crete Senesi,” an area famous for its characteristic landscape and spectacular views of the Tuscan countryside dotted with cypress and small farms and villas perched on top of the numerous hills of this region. The final day is spent in Siena, yet another gem of the Tuscan Wanderlust hiking tour.

    Jeremy Montagu Some Mss. In the British Library with Instruments Page 1 of 2 Some Manuscripts in the British Library with Illustrations of Musical Instruments and a few other sources that I have found FoMRHIQ 2, January 1976,Comm. 8 Arundel 83. Conflation of two English Psalters, East Anglia, c.1310. The second half is known as the de Lisle Psalter. Good source. Includes: long trumpets, harps, citole, bagpipe, bells, fiddle, portative, psaltery, duct flute, pipe & tabor. Cotton, Tib.C.vi. Psalter, mid 11th c. f.30 is well-known; the rest is the usual Boethius improbabilities of the period. Egerton 1139. Queen Melissander’s Psalter, Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem, c.1140. The only instrument is a good harp, available asa postcard. The ivory cover is well known: King David playing what might be a dulcimer. Harley 2804. German Bible, 1148. f.3 has a not very good David and musicians. Harley 4425. La Roman de la Rose, pre-1500. 2 folios with music parties. Royal 2.A.xvi. Psalter time of Henry VIII, with annotations by him. Harp, pipe& tabor, short trumpet, dulcimer. Interesting that Henry is one of the musicians (and his fool shuts his ears to avoid his playing). Royal 2.A.xxii. The Westminster Psalter, late 12th c. David with harp and bells (postcard available), another harp. Interesting in that Westminster Abbey has a very similar hemi- spherical bell in the Undercroft exhibition room. Royal 2.B.vii. The Queen Mary Psalter, English early 14th c. well known source with a lot of material, but none quite as good and clear as in other East Anglian psalters (e.g.
