TEx@ATA
TEX@ATA is ATA’s online exhibition program. Featuring a wide range of exhibits, TEX@ATA highlights contemporary tapestry artists working either within specific techniques or expanding the boundaries of tapestry as an art form. Each exhibit is accompanied by a curatorial essay to broaden the viewer’s understanding of concepts and techniques used by featured artists. ATA would like to acknowledge the Laffer Curatorial Program for initial funds to launch the program in 2005. Interested in curating an online exhibition for ATA? Email info(at)americantapestryalliance.org to express interest.
