Metropolis Magazine - September 2019

In this issue

Focus on the vast and evolving industry of textiles, including:
the pioneering biodesign research of Carole Collet, whose speculative and applied projects point towards a more sustainable future; a step behind the curtain of Wolf-Gordon with Marybeth Shaw, whose support for emerging talent keeps the company on the cutting edge of contract textiles; and boundary-pushing techniques of five artists whose work runs the gamut from glitchy jacquard weavings to architectural-scale quilts. Also: WorkAC creates a new gateway to the Rhode Island School of Design campus; and a preview of this year’s Chicago Architecture Biennial, exploring the five main themes of the exhibits.
