Fabric of Encbantment: Batik from the North coast of Java.
The exhibition Fabric of Enchantment highlights selections from the Inger McCabe Elliott batik collection, for which this volume serves as the catalogue. Dale Carolyn Gluckman, associate curator of costumes and textiles, herself an authority on South Asian textiles, has brought together an outstanding trio of scholars from Great Britain and the Netherlands to shed new light on these colorful, intricate, and sometimes fanciful textiles, textiles that have many stories to tell about their creators and wearers; their images and meanings; their historical context and social milieu. Perhaps the most interesting story for the modern reader is that of the artistic flowering of a culturally and ethnically diverse society whose major creative expression was on cloth. Some fifty years later, its examination here has particular resonance for sprawling Pasific Rim city on the coast of the United States.
