Location

The sixth edition of the International Valcellina Award for Young Textile Artists has been launched. Organized by Le Arti Tessili Association, its target is to promote activities of textile art and culture as a means to enhance the knowledge of our domestic culture and exchange with foreign ones. The exhibition celebrates the prestigious international textile art award – which is one of the most important events in Italy concerning fiber art. This particular branch of contemporary art has very ancient roots in the art of weaving and takes up modern forms through different techniques like intertwining, the use of different fibers, patchwork, ready-made objects, and everything that refers to “textile”.
