A beautiful new monograph on Gyongy Laky, designed A beautiful new monograph on Gyongy Laky, designed by Tom Grotta  and published by Arjnoldshe Art Publishers, Germany.. Available at browngrotta or William Stout Architectural Books

"Renowned American textile artist and sculptor Gyöngy Laky (b. 1944) was once described as a “wood whisperer.” Her highly individual, puzzle-like assemblages of timber and textiles helped to significantly propel the growth of the contemporary fiber-arts movement.
Laky’s art traverses an extraordinary personal story: Born amid the bombings of World War II, she escaped from post-war, Soviet-dominated Hungary; a sponsorship from a family in Ohio, grade school in Oklahoma, and a course of study at the University of California, Berkeley, followed, before founding Fiberworks Center for Textile Arts in the 1970s and fostering innovations as a professor at the University of California, Davis.
The publication Screwing with Order provides insight into her studio practice, activism, and teaching philosophy, which champions sustainable art and design, original thinking, and the value of the unexpected.”

NBO Featured Friday Vicki Phillips "I learned fro NBO Featured Friday Vicki Phillips

"I learned from a friend in 1986 how to make pine needle baskets, and I have had a passion for this craft ever since. I am still amazed at how something as simple as a bundle of pine needles can be transformed into something useful and beautiful. My baskets are an eclectic collection based on many years of self-taught experimentation of playing with pine needles! Enjoy!”
