About the Exhibition
Loewen Studio & Gallery invites quilt artists worldwide to submit work for the inaugural Fine Art Quilts Exhibition—a juried show celebrating the expressive power and artistic merit of quilting. This exhibition seeks to highlight quilts that embody originality, strong visual design, and fine art sensibility.
Submissions may range from abstract to representational, minimalist to intricate. Traditional techniques are welcome if presented in innovative ways. Mixed media, surface design, and unconventional materials are encouraged, provided the work adheres to the definition of a quilt.
This exhibition affirms quilting as a serious fine art discipline and offers artists the opportunity for national and international visibility in a professionally curated gallery setting.
