SUMMARY:Shirley Craven
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of vivid\, colour-filled textiles by post-war designer Shirley Craven.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in Hull in 1934 and evacuated during the Second World War\, Craven cites the rural Yorkshire landscape and her post-war education at Hull College of Art and the Royal College of Art (1955-8) as a launchpad to a hugely successful career at the printing firm Hull Traders. Aged 29\, Craven became Chief Designer and Director of this small and visionary firm whose artist-designers also included Althea McNish and Eduardo Paolozzi. The Whitworth is home to over 80 of Craven’s bold abstract textiles\, displayed together for the first time in over 60 years alongside newly acquired unique works from her days as a Student at the RCA. \n\n\n\nEvent Details
