The Fowler Museum ...Yes, I enjoy posts like these.<br /><br />The Fowler Museum of Cultural History in Los Angeles collected one of the largest textile collections in the world. In order to study women in societies that control women's movements/social contacts severely, the anthropologists would use a cover story that they were interested in purchasing textiles directly from the makers. <br /><br />Over the decades, their collections have grown so much that textile scholars trek there to study. The textiles and their makers are well documented and put in context. <br /><br />The V&A in London has more machine-made textiles. But the Fowler has the most hand-made textiles. It's really worth spending time there on your next visit to LA.<br /><br />Here's are some samples of special exhibits.<br />http://badmomgoodmom.blogspot.com/2013/07/stories-behind-garments.html<br />http://badmomgoodmom.blogspot.com/2007/07/el-anatsui-gawu.html<br />badmomgoodmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11569728075698885020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553172421381359137.post-35369286934634358282014-03-07T15:42:06.724+01:002014-03-07T15:42:06.724+01:00Wow, fascinating!
