About the Book
Material Meaning: A Living Legacy of Anni Albers explores the ongoing legacy of Anni Albers through the artistry of ten contemporary American artists and designers working with weaving as their art form - Samantha Bittman, Lois Bryant, Christy Matson, Jennifer Moore, Brittany Wittman, Rachel Snack, Susie Taylor, Cameron Taylor-Brown, Suzanne Tick, and Marcia Weiss.
Each work is annotated with a few words about its relationship to something Albers practiced or taught. Personal statements by each artist further reflect on Albers as inspiration. Published in the centennial year of the founding of the Bauhaus, this book, based on the exhibit shown at the Craft in America Center in Los Angeles, pays homage to the spirit and methods of Anni Albers and the Bauhaus weaving workshop.

About the Creator
Brittany Wittman
USA
My approach to weaving encourages a process of making art on the loom by using various materials and weaving structures as a means of creative expression. I share with you the very practical aspect of weaving, where construction is of the upmost importance. Using this process, you can approach your loom with a sense of exploration and not be limited by a set pattern, design, or weave draft. The root of my work here is to inspire you to expand your creativity.
