Unconventional and Unexpected
Featuring quilts from Roderick Kiracofe’s collection that appeared in the eponymous publication and exhibited concurrently with Shaker Stories
Sonoma Valley Museum of Art, Sonoma, CA
2015
Never before has there been an exhibition of maverick quilts like this one.
Unconventional and Unexpected shows how primarily anonymous, often self-taught women working below the radar of the art world have often produced quilts for everyday use in their homes, that nonetheless articulate many of the same issues that have been at the core of the development of modern art during the second half of the twentieth century. The exhibition presents a selection of visually stunning pieced quilts and quilt tops from the mid to late 20th century from the collection of Roderick Kiracofe.
