Publisher's summary: The development of textiles as an art form between 1945 and 1970, and the extent of collaboration between artists and textile manufacturers at this time, is unrivalled in modern art history. Raoul Dufy was the first twentieth-century artist to become seriously and successfully involved in producing textile designs. His work influenced and encouraged many other artists and textile companies in Britain, on the Continent and in America. After the war this movement really flowered with the involvement of leading artists of the day: Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Henry Moore, Ben Nicholson, Saul Steinberg, Salvador Dalì, Eduardo Paolozzi, Fernand Léger to name a few… This book is an important and comprehensive survey of this art form in Britain and America.There are approximately 200 color images, many of which have never been seen before, alongside specially commissioned photography.
