http://newfibreart.org.uk Fibre Art in Britain has its roots among a number of artists who, in the late 1970s, no longer wanted their work to be classified under the heading of weaving' 'printing' 'embroidery', etc. Guilds were often bound to traditional work and experimenting and mixed media were frowned upon. Fibre artists who wanted their work to be exhibited became increasingly frustrated as galleries refused to show their work.This is their website.
