Pattern and Process: Selections from the Kravet Archive, on view from September 5 through November 27 at the NYSID Gallery, will feature selections from Kravet's extensive archive of textile design, which documents the history of textile manufacture dating back centuries and originating from cultures across the globe. Encompassing textiles, paintings, artifacts and other historic documents, the Kravet archive is an important resource for researchers, designers and historians.
NYSID has selected more than 80 examples from the archive, including an Egyptian textile fragment dating from 200 BC, paintings, artifacts, contemporary pieces such as recent indigo-dyed fabrics from Japan, and other historic documents.
