BASKETS:
NO BOUNDARIES

The title of the show, Baskets:  No Boundaries, suggests the theme of freedom from rules and constraints, from the limits imposed by traditions and expectations. Over recent decades, basket makers have been expanding the ancient traditions they both honor and now transcend to create their own personal expressions.  The 19 artists chosen for this show convey cross-cultural concepts about the contemporary basket movement.  Traditional influences represented include Haida, Nantucket, Hispanic, Ojibwa, and Japanese. Tradition and innovation are entwined in all of the baskets.

Four prestigious Haida artists included in this exhibition are Merle Andersen, Delores Churchill, Lisa Telford, and Evelyn Vanderhoop. All of the artists are highly recognized leaders in the field of innovative basket making.
