Seventy years of Hicks' paradigm-shifting approach to fiber arts, featuring, for the first time ever, early paintings from her studies under Josef Albers "What can you do with thread?" This is the question that American textile artist Shelia Hicks (born 1934) has tirelessly explored over the course of her 70-year-long career. Covering her multifarious works from 1955 to 2024, this substantial volume traces the artist's evolving answers to this question. Shelia Hicks includes never-before-seen early paintings from her time studying under the master abstract artist and educator, Josef Albers, early textile pieces, works from her time in Chile, Mexico and Morocco, and designs for major architectural commissions, as well as her more recent vibrant wall objects, sculptures and installations. Accompanying the abundance of color plates are preparatory sketches and archival materials. The volume also features an in-depth biography that delves into each creative stage of Hicks' practice and a brand-new interview regarding the artist's experience as Albers' pupil.
