Sheila Hicks
Sheila Hicks (born 1934) is a pioneering artist noted for objects & public commissions whose structures are built of colour & fibre. This volume accompanies the first major retrospective of Hicks's work. It documents the divergent scale of her textiles as well as her distinctive use, & surprising range, of materials.
Sheila Hicks: Lifelines
An admirer of pre-Columbian textiles, the artist uses large sculptures as well as miniature weaves to create tapestries that bring their color to life.
Sheila Hicks: a Matter of Scale
Published as a sequel to Sheila Hicks: Apprentissages (2017), this new book by the artist (born 1934) gathers recent monumental and architectural-based projects. It emphasizes Hicks' relationship to the sites in which she intervenes and her way of playing with scale and site-specificity. Among the outdoor and indoor projects featured in the publication are Foray into Chromatic Zones (Hayward Gallery, London, 2015); Escalade Beyond Chromatic Lands (57th Venice Biennale, Venice, 2017); and Hop, Skip, Jump, and Fly. Escape from Gravity (High Line, New York, 2017-18). Sheila Hicks: A Matter of Scale places a particular focus on Lifelines, Hicks' recent retrospective held at the Centre Pompidou, which is treated here as a case study for the artist's broader practice.
Interaction of Color
An experimental approach to the study and teaching of color is comprised of exercises in seeing color action and feeling color relatedness before arriving at color theory.
Sheila Hicks
Drawing on global weaving traditions, the history of painting and sculpture, graphic design, and architecture, Sheila Hicks has redefined how fiber is used to create art, influencing a generation of artists. Sheila Hicks: Material Voices explores sixty years of her prolific career through four diverse perspectives. Karin Campbell considers how Hicks's oeuvre has taken shape over time and highlights the essential links between the artist's work and lived experience. Ted Kooser reflects on the aesthetic and poetic power Hicks's work, while Jason Farago delves into Hicks's incomparable eye for color. Finally, a conversation between the artist and Monique Lévi-Strauss looks back to formative experiences from early in Hicks's life and career.
