开封刺绣展10月在威奇托纽曼大学展出 姐妹城市情谊绣进八尺屏风

整个10月,堪萨斯州威奇托市纽曼大学的斯泰克莱恩画廊正在展出《Love, A Sister City》,这是一组来自中国开封的手绣挂毯,由威奇托地区姐妹城市组织与画廊合作推出。展览的核心是一幅约8英尺×10英尺的绣屏,绣的是《百骏图》,针法细密,展现了中国传统手工艺的精湛水准。这组作品两年前曾在当地的Mark Arts展出过,如今重回威奇托,给错过上次展览的观众又一次机会。
纽曼大学教育学教授华川·温出席了10月1日中午的“午间艺术”开幕活动。画廊临时主任、艺术与人文学科主任香农·约翰斯顿说,很高兴与社区分享这件特殊的文化珍宝。姐妹城市组织则在脸书发帖表示,希望借此庆祝威奇托与开封之间持久的姐妹城市情谊。画廊位于纽曼校园德马蒂亚斯美术中心内,周一至周五上午9时至下午4时开放,也可预约参观。

Kaifeng Embroidery Exhibition on View in October at Newman University in Wichita; Sister-City Friendship Embroidered Into a Screen
Throughout October, the Steckline Gallery at Newman University in Wichita, Kansas, is showing Love, A Sister City, a set of hand-embroidered tapestries from Kaifeng, China, presented by the Wichita-area sister cities organization in partnership with the gallery. The centerpiece of the exhibition is an embroidered screen of about 8 feet by 10 feet depicting One Hundred Horses, its fine stitching showing the mastery of traditional Chinese craftsmanship. The works were shown two years ago at Mark Arts in Wichita and have now returned, giving visitors who missed the earlier exhibition another chance to see them.
Newman University education professor Huachuan Wen attended the Art for Lunch opening event at noon on Oct. 1. Shannon Johnston, the gallery's interim director and chair of art and humanities, said she was pleased to share this special cultural treasure with the community. The sister cities organization, in a Facebook post, said it hoped the exhibition would celebrate the enduring sister-city friendship between Wichita and Kaifeng. The gallery is located in the DeMattias Fine Arts Center on the Newman campus and is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with visits also available by appointment.
