Pierre Alechinsky “Spire” Tapestry
Step into the realm of contemporary tapestry with Atelier 3’s captivating rendition of Pierre Alechinsky’s vibrant painting, “Spire.”
Established in 1972 by three passionate collaborators, Atelier 3 is no ordinary weaving workshop. They revive forgotten techniques, working with a diverse range of artists – from painters like Alechinsky to sculptors and photographers.
Eschewing cold, numbered blueprints, Atelier 3 thrives on artistic interpretation. Their tapestries are woven from the front, allowing them to engage directly with the artwork’s essence, capturing Alechinsky’s bold colors and expressive forms in a unique woven tapestry.
This method starkly contrasts with the factory-style production of tapestries. At Atelier 3, each thread becomes a brushstroke, meticulously translating the artist’s vision into a stunning textile masterpiece. The “Spire” tapestry is a vibrant reimagining, a testament to the enduring power of artistic collaboration. -
