Margret Eicher – Lob der Malkunst

“The exhibition “Margret Eicher. Lob der Malkunst” is a cooperation with the Museum Villa Stuck in Munich and the continuation of the project in the adopted hometown of the artist (born 1955 in Viersen). In her digital tapestries, Margret Eicher evokes the nimbus of an art form that developed primarily in the context of courtly representation. This special form of textile art has meanwhile been almost completely supplanted by its bourgeois variant, the wallpaper; yet tapestries evoke strong material-iconographic associations that refer to their original functional context. …” (translated with www.deepL.com)
