Fabric of the American Dream features gorgeous full-color reproductions of paintings by nationally-collected painter Jane Richlovsky, with essay by art critic Jim Demetre, vintage snapshots of the patterned milieu the artist grew up in, peeks into her source material and working process, and additional visuals and writings that illuminate the paintings and their subject matter. Richlovsky paints directly onto found textiles from the mid-20th century, allowing the patterns to peep through and drawing on mid-century modern sensibilities and the ironies and contradictions of advertising and the pre-packaged American Dream.
