 StoreSeptember 28, 2022 • View in browserHyperallergic readers know we love writing about innovative, skilled artists who work in textiles. At the Hyperallergic Store, we also have a penchant for art fashioned from fabric. That’s why we carry a range of products inspired by these unparalleled displays of craftsmanship, including a number of items that reproduce art in an affordable textile format (scarves and tea towels, anyone?).  Gee’s Bend Pettway Quilt ScarfA recreation of Lucy T. Pettway’s iconographic “Housetop and Bricklayer with Bars” decorates this modal silk scarf. The original work is intentionally pictorial, depicting an imaginary aerial view of the old Pettway plantation. Explore more products featuring designs by the quilters of Gee’s Bend!  Sheila Bridges “Harlem Toile de Jouy” Silk ScarfHarlem-based interior designer Sheila Bridges fashioned this stylish accessory as an homage to her mother, who loved wearing colorful scarves from museum shops.  “Woman Freedom Now” Tea Towel x Faith RinggoldFaith Ringgold has long been celebrated for her work as an artist, author, educator, and organizer. Enjoy her striking art in your home with this 100% linen tea towel, which can be put to practical purposes or hung on a wall and admired.  Blue & White Peruvian Wave NapkinsThis timeless textile set reinterprets a remarkable Peruvian panel fragment in the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, made of cotton and camelid hair between the 10th and 15th centuries.  Winslow Homer “Shore and Surf” Silk ScarfYou thought the wave motif above was nautical? This statement scarf takes it to the extreme with its vibrant reproduction of the dramatic “Shore and Surf, Nassau” (1899). If you like Winslow Homer, you’ll love these other products!  Greek Vase Tea TowelThis eye-catching tea towel shows off a detail from an ancient Greek terracotta volute-krater (ca. 450 BCE). Used for mixing water and wine, the vase features a narrative scene illustrating a battle between the Greeks and the fabled Amazons. Interested in ancient Greece? Check out this amphora-inspired pin!  Byzantine Tesserae Silk ScarfDazzle them with color — gold, silver, and a brilliant rainbow assemblage of glass — on this stunning silk scarf. Its pattern is derived from tiny tiles thought to have come from a Byzantine mosaic created at some point between the 6th and 15th centuries.  Mexican Sampler Cashmere-Blend ScarfBased on an 1861 cloth sampler from Mexico at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this charming scarf reproduces its secular and religious imagery, including floral motifs, animals, and a trio of sacred hearts.
