Description
A monumental Robert Kidd textile rug/wall hanging. This is a truly extraordinary one of a kind textile piece from Michigan artist Robert Kidd. This textile is absolutely massive in scale, creating a beautiful presentation in any room it is placed in. This piece is handwoven with a mix of dyed wool fabrics. It features a story of colorations, patterns, and textures as it stretches across the room. One side features a colorful, vibrant section that transitions into a sea of Earth tones and shades of purples. This textile masterpiece could be used as a standard area rug, as well as be hung on a large wall as a work of art. It is in very good vintage condition, with just one single small tear as pictured above, which is very easily repairable. It measures 251 inches long, 113 inches wide, and roughly 2 inches thick.
Robert Kidd Gallery was founded in 1976 By Robert Louis Kidd and Ray Frost Fleming, graduates of the Cranbrook Academy of Art. Owed to the curatorial vigor of Kidd and Fleming, the Robert Kidd Gallery achieved early notoriety through the caliber and consistency of its exhibitions, and a growing stable of prestigious artists with whom the gallery became affiliated. In the early 1980s, the gallery's exhibition and archive spaces were expanded by renowned architect Irving Tobocman, and fitted with custom gallery interiors by Kidd. The elegant modern designs conceived and constructed at the time of this collaboration remain in the two-level gallery on Townsend Street in downtown Birmingham, Michigan to this day. In addition to the works of emerging contemporary artists, the gallery roster became further distinguished by the works of numerous prominent modern masters including Milton Avery, Harry Bertoia, Helen Frankenthaler, Marshall Fredericks and Larry Rivers. The gallery's legacy of important exhibitions continued for several years after the founder’s deaths, under the direction of the gallery’s long-time staff.
