CHROMATIC CONSTRUCTIONS: Contemporary Fiber Art by Dora Hsiung.

The art of Dora Hsiung at initial impact is straightforward and unabashedly decorative, yet upon analysis it proves to contain subtleties to engage the eye and the mind. Her fabric sculptures look – and are – mathematically organized. Like a well-constructed fugue, a Hsiung work alters its tone and its counterpoint subtly as it moves from side to side, from top to bottom. Now and then there is a dissonant thread, which serves to accent the harmony of the whole.

The program begins in the spring with twice monthly meetings and field trips. The journey to China is typically about three weeks in July. The program culminates in a Chinese New Year exhibition at the Chinese Culture Center in San Francisco, where participants share what they have learned with family, friends, and community. Read more »
