New courses
With effect from September 2011, Julia Caprara School of Textile Arts will be running two additional courses, viz. a two-year, part-time MA Textile Arts and a one-year, part-time pre-Degree Textile Arts Course. Both courses are subject to validation by Middlesex University.
Shows
We will be present at the following Shows:
Quilt Show, NEC, Birmingham 19 - 22 August (stand C59)
Knitting & Stitching Shows
Alexandra Palace, London 7 - 10 October (stand TGF 4)
RDS,Dublin 28 - 31 October (stand M18)
IHC, Harrogate 25 - 28 November (stand TG102)
This year there will be a retrospective of Julia Caprara's work at all 3 Knitting & Stitching Shows. We have agreed with the organisers that the JC School stand will be an integral part of this retrospective. This is in recognition of Julia's talents, not only as a textile artist but also as an inspirational teacher and visionary.
News from our students and graduates
We are pleased to inform you that Tiziana Tateo's work 'River Pearls' received the ArtDirectors award in the online InfinityArtGallery (www.infinityartgallery.com). Tiziana is one of this year's graduates whose work was on display in the Redchurch Gallery during June.
Jackie Langfeld has 5 figures in exhibitionism at the Courtauld Institute, and 3 other figures in Winchester Cathedral as part of the Hyde 900 project in an event called 'RE-imagining the Treasures of Hyde Abbey'.
Work by Tiziana Tateo has been chosen to be one of the 55 pieces archived in the permanent collection of the International Quilt Study Center at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. This particular piece was part of the SAQA 20th Anniversary Trunk Show.
