Worthwhile purchase for art quilt lovers

If you want to see what the art of the quilt is all about, this catalog of 80 quilts of the "highest aesthetic and artistic quality" will show you. This juried exhibition was selected from almost 900 entries from the U.S. and abroad and, in my opinion, is the best VISIONS yet. The jurors were asked to pick quilts that flow with color and sparkle with excitement and to present works that represent the best in art quiltmaking today. The range, complexity and cohesion of the quilts shown make it a worthwhile purchase. The photography and color reproduction are very good, although pictures of some of the larger quilts fail to convey the full power of the originals, a problem not unique to this catalog. The book follows the format of earlier Visions catalogs, devoting one color page to each quilt, with the artist's statement and details of size, materials and techniques used. An index is included.
