Emblazoning its logo onto t-shirts, the group wryly envisioned female collective textile making as a practice that could upend conventions, threaten state structures, and wreak political havoc. Elaborating on this example as a prehistory to the more recent phenomenon of "craftivism"--The politics and social practices associated with handmaking--Fray explores textiles and their role at the forefront of debates about process, materiality, gender, and race in times of economic upheaval. Closely examining how amateurs and fine artists in the United States and Chile turned to sewing, braiding, knotting, and quilting amid the rise of global manufacturing, Julia Bryan-Wilson argues that textiles unravel the high/low divide and urges us to think flexibly about what the politics of textiles might be. Her case studies from the 1970s through the 1990s--including the improvised costumes of the theater troupe the Cockettes, the braided rag rugs of US artist Harmony Hammond, the thread-based sculptures of Chilean artist Cecilia Vicuña, the small hand-sewn tapestries depicting Pinochet's torture, and the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt--are often taken as evidence of the inherently progressive nature of handcrafted textiles. Fray, however, shows that such methods are recruited to often ambivalent ends, leaving textiles very much "in the fray" of debates about feminized labor, protest cultures, and queer identities; the malleability of cloth and fiber means that textiles can be activated, or stretched, in many ideological directions. The first contemporary art history book to discuss both fine art and amateur registers of handmaking at such an expansive scale, Fray unveils crucial insights into how textiles inhabit the broad space between artistic and political poles--high and low, untrained and highly skilled, conformist and disobedient, craft and art. -- From book jacket. 000857801 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000857801 60010 $$aVicuña, Cecilia. 000857801 650_0 $$aFiberwork$$xPolitical aspects. 000857801 650_0 $$aArt$$xPolitical aspects$$vCase studies. 000857801 650_0 $$aHomosexuality and art$$zUnited States. 000857801 650_0 $$aHandicraft$$xPolitical aspects$$zUnited States. 000857801 650_0 $$aNAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt. 000857801 650_0 $$aTextile crafts$$xPolitical aspects$$zChile. 000857801 650_0 $$aFeminism and art. 000857801 650_0 $$aArt, Modern$$y20th century$$xHistory. 000857801 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBryan-Wilson, Julia.$$tFray.$$dChicago : The University of Chicago Press, 2017$$z9780226077819$$w(DLC) 2016058305$$w(OCoLC)967727523 000857801 852__ $$bcoll 000857801 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000857801 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4920769$$zOnline Access 000857801 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:857801$$pGLOBAL_SET 000857801 980__ $$aEBOOK 000857801 980__ $$aBIB 000857801 982__ $$aEbook 000857801 983__ $$aOnline
