"The Skirball Cultural Center is dedicated to exploring the connections between the age-old Jewish heritage and American democracy…The Skirball takes particular pride in its educational and cultural programs for thousands of schoolchildren and their teachers-people of every background who are finding common ground in our pluralistic America." - Dr. Uri D. Herscher, Founding President and Chief Executive Officer Featuring the exhibition: Judy Chicago Resolutions: A Stitch in Time January 28 - April 29 Milken and Hurd Galleries Judy Chicago's newest body of work, Resolutions: A Stitch in Time, a series of painted and needlework images, will premiere on the West Coast at the Skirball Cultural Center from January 28 - April 29, 2001. Resolutions includes nineteen needlework pieces and one sculpture created by Ms. Chicago and a national team of needlework artists; preparatory drawings; a documentary video presentation; and information on the needleworking techniques included in the project. Unique to this exhibition is a group of traditional Judaic needlework textiles from the Skirball's own collection with interpretive responses by the artist and curators. The eighteen needlework artists use a variety of complicated techniques, including embroidery, appliqué, quilting, beading, macrame, smocking, needlework, and petitpoint. These are combined with Judy Chicago's painting to challenge the boundaries between art and craft.
