For Tapestry, One More Renaissance

Fred Tomaselli (b.1956), After Migrant Fruit Thugs
"When Chris and Suzanne Sharp conceived of their Banners of Persuasion tapestry project, the premise was fairly straightforward. 'In the Renaissance people would commission an artist to do a tapestry for them,' Mr. Sharp said in a phone interview, 'and then they’d commission a workshop to produce the design. We thought it would be interesting to return to the same format and that synergy between the commissioning person and the artist and the workshop'."
