SUMMARY:Articles due for Fall Issue of Tapestry Topics
DESCRIPTION:Going International              Deadline: July 15\, 2012    The intertwining structure of the tapestry medium is reflected in the world wide web of communication between tapestry artists. The pioneering initiative of ITNET\, websites like ATA's and the Tapestry Facebook group\, express vividly the powerful materiality of the medium\, and the commitment of the artists who work in it. This is only one of the paradoxes that enliven the practice of tapestry as an art form. We invite submissions from tapestry practitioners around the world\, overviews of the tapestry scene in different countries\, and general 'thought-pieces' on contemporary tapestry as a worldwide phenomenon.  Contact Theme Editor\, Anne Jackson.
