Playful Vision: Nuno’s Textile Imaginings

This Kaunas exhibition showcases textiles from Nuno, a remarkable Tokyo-based design and production studio led by artistic director and co-founder Reiko Sudo. Nuno (meaning “fabric” in Japanese) integrates traditional techniques and aesthetics with contemporary technologies and materials to create some of the most innovative weaving in the world. Imaginative vision is the key here: using everything from stainless steel and milk protein to bamboo and bird feathers, as well as unorthodox finishing methods like burning and chemical melting or appropriating the latest industrial processes while also fostering centuries-old craftsmanship, Nuno…

Peru

ÁXIMO LAURA, born in Peru in 1959, has woven in his father’s workshop since he was 9 years of age, attending school in part time.

He has devoted himself to this form of expression ever since, clearly showing his Andean roots and cosmic world view. He hopes to contribute to the renewal of this rich old culture that is still…

GEORGE MACIUNAS AND BEYOND: FLUXUS NEVER STOPS

In the time it took to organize this show, major shifts occurred – shifts in location, works to be shown, participants, activities, and ideas of what Fluxus was, is , and could be. A call for works was put out to the “Eternal Network” of Artists, Non-Artists, Poets, Flux people, and Friends to interpret the idea of Fluxus, and in doing so, honor the legacy of George Maciunas, the founder of Fluxus, who was born in Kaunas and emigrated with his family to the United States.

The premise…

PLAY

Posted in: Play

The beginning of our Dance Festival and Kaunas Biennial every second year overlaps. We tried to adjust the dates, until finally the idea of a creative attempt to combine both events and artists from both fields crossed my mind. Organizers of Kaunas Biennial TEXTILE and artists met this idea very enthusiastically. This is the story, how interdisciplinary program for artistic collaboration PLAY was born. Kaunas Biennial suggested visual artists and we suggested the choreographers. The project started with the brainstorm in virtual space, then the first meeting was held. Ideas begun to turn into flesh, when dancers joined the meetings…
