SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College and Delmonico Books/D.A.P. announce the publication of Radical Fiber: Threads Connecting Art and Science, a catalogue that celebrates the overlap between art, science, interdisciplinary creativity, and collaborative learning in conjunction with the 2022 exhibition of the same name.

Edited by Tang Associate Curator Rebecca McNamara, Radical Fiber features a new artwork created by amateur and professional makers around the globe: the Saratoga Springs Satellite Reef, part of the Crochet Coral Reef project by Christine and Margaret Wertheim and the Institute For Figuring. 

With a foreword by Dayton Director Ian Berry, the exhibition catalogue includes contributors who reflect the full scope of the cross-disciplinary project.

Radical Fiber: Threads Connecting Art and Science (224 pages; softcover; $50; designed by Barbara Glauber / Heavy Meta) is available from the Tang website at: tang.skidmore.edu.
