May Art Salon

May 20, 10:30am to noon

The Kimono: Art in Motion

The everyday kimono is a thing of the past but is still worn on special occasions. More and more Japanese have adopted western clothing following WWII. The kimono at one time signaled a person’s class in society, the season, one’s age, family lineage, and more. The fabric for some kimono became illegal to produce because the method was so time-consuming and the final cost was prohibitive. Surface art was done using various techniques and
many types of weaves. At one point, kimono makers were held in higher regard than the artists and weavers who embellished the fabrics.

These facts and more will be elaborated by Fran Dorr at the May Art Salon which will be held Wednesday May 20th from 10:30am to noon in the Topaz Room at the MountainView Clubhouse. Fran will share some kimono fabric samples for closer observation.
