Jean Lurçat: Le Chant du Monde Tapestries



The medieval Apocalypse tapestry series inspired Lurçat’s monumental post-WWII weavings about the dangers of the atomic age. With the permission of Mme. Lurçat, a loom was set up in the gallery and professional tapestry weavers wove a detail from one of the tapestries in the series during the exhibition.
