Uncommon Textiles opens soon
UNCOMMON TEXTILES: two directions
Sara Christensen Blair does crochet, cross-stitch and quilting, but unlike anything you have seen before. She takes these traditional female arts, associated with washcloths and whimsy, and transforms ideas and objects into meditations on the experience of being a woman in the 21st century.
Susan Hensel Gallery
The focus of Susan Hensel Gallery is on compelling objects, meaningful use of materials, and engaging sculpture. It is a gallery where experimental ideas and works of the hand join to create unique sensory experiences. Opened September 10th, 2004 Susan Hensel Gallery is a gallery/ workspace presenting 5-6 shows per year in an intimate space, with hardwood floors and high tin ceilings. In 2013 the interior space reverted to a working studio for Susan Hensel where she continues to work on small and largescale artwork that engages both sculptural and cultural space. You can find her current work at www.SusanHenselProjects.com. The Susan Hensel Gallery is now both a large window gallery on Cedar Avenue, a main thoroughfare in south Minneapolis, and an online venture represented on Artsy.net.
