Ot Art Nouveau textiles esp embroideries

[Mirjam Bruck-Cohen]

Amongst the other great sifgts Brusseles , Belgium has , are the many
Art Nouveau buildings , and of course them many Art Noveau textile
works.
Brusseles has many Buildings planned by Vivtor Horta... lately they
have restorred and cleaned [ and found some Forgotten spaces] the
BOZAR , Museum , which is a Jewel of well planned .
Through my visits there i have come to like and respect the Art
Nouveau Textiles , although i never felt any need to copy or craet any
art or craft project that will look like it. I still am happy to see
more works in this style.
This time i was shown , by a private collector , some embroideries
that really were lovely. The elegant Silk on silk embroidery of
flowers , that seem like flowrs one saw , but they have this added
color or line that makes you wonder if they aren`t a fantasy of the
designer . Flower sort of streaming into [or out for that matter] from
a fish body, or a bird`s wing. A woman profile almost growing out of
a tree or bush , while her hair flows with flowers . Wonderful
textiles. [Amd ps ,many were embroidered by males]
