Exhibition: "Closet Archaeology"

Closet Archaeology, the major exhibit at The Hermitage in 2010, will open on January 30 at the Hermitage Education & Conference Center. The exhibit features the contemporary textile art of Diane Savona, who uses deconstructed historical garments and found objects to reconstruct new forms that are incorporated into visual collages. "By incorporating clothing, tools, and personal possessions into my artwork, I seek to connect my work to the people in the wider community, both past and present,” says Savona, who is guest curator for the exhibit. “The Hermitage Collection presents a unique opportunity to piece together elements of past eras and contemporary art.” Closet Archaeology will be open to the public from Wednesdays through Sundays, 1-4 p.m., from January 30 to September 26, 2010. Admission is $7 for adults; $5 for seniors; and $4 for children age 6-12 (children under 6 are admitted free). A tour of the historic Hermitage is included in the admission

"Closet Archaeology" is featured on the cover of the April-May 2010 issue of Fiber Arts magazine. Click here to download a PDF version of the article.
