"Klimt on Crane"


Artist: Molly Anderson

 “Cranes on Parade” provided a very different way for textile artist Molly Anderson to approach her medium of choice - fabric.  Anderson’s award winning art quilts have been exhibited extensively throughout the Midwest.  Inspiration for the crane project came to her when she found some reproduction fabric of her favorite artist, Gustav Klimt.  About fifteen different Klimt reproduction fabrics were used, combining concentrated areas of pattern with large areas of decorative solids.  The fabric was applied decoupage style to the crane surface.  About five days of focused work completed the crane.
