Isabel Oliver. El pincel como aguja
Conversamos con Isabel Oliver (Valencia, 1946) en torno a sus obras en la exposición «El plano flexible» y su relación con el arte textil, marcada por la experiencia de sometimiento y marginación que vivieron las mujeres durante la dictadura franquista. Es la primera entrega de una serie de entrevistas que en las próximas semanas publicaremos con varias de las artistas que participan en esta muestra.
The latest in our ‘Itineraries’ section explores the origins, references and connections in Dora García’s work ‘Giving Hands, Receiving Hands’
Valladolid-based artist Dora García – a former winner of the Spanish Visual Arts Award – made the set of six tapestries especially for the Collection Hall at the Banco de España. Four of the pieces are currently on display as part of the exhibition ‘The Pliable Plane’. The podcast/itinerary was produced by curator and researcher Sonia Fernández Pan.
The Pliable Plane: Textiles at the Juncture between Art, Architecture and Industry in the Banco de España’s new exhibition
The exhibition features some of the most iconic tapestries and carpets in the bank’s historical collection alongside contemporary works illustrating the development and expansion of the potential of textile art in recent decades. The show, in the exhibition hall at the Banco de España’s head offices on Plaza Cibeles, will run until 28 March 2027.
