From the International Quilt Museum: "On Sept. 10, join us for a gallery talk of the exhibition “30 Variations and 2 Arias: A Tribute to JS Bach” with French quilt artist Anne Bellas! Learn about these incredible quilts from the artist and enjoy free access to the exhibition as well as refreshments. In this exhibition, Bellas reimagines Johann Sebastian Bach’s “Goldberg Variations” through a collection of 32 textile paintings, each corresponding to a single variation of the celebrated score. Using fabrics inherited from her great-grandmother—transformed through her own processes of dyeing and printing—Bellas creates works that merge personal memory with the universal language of music. The gallery talk will take place at 5:30 p.m. on Sept. 10 in the IQM’s Pumphrey Gallery."
