Quilts
Lottie Mooney (1908–1992), "Housetop"—four-block "Half-Log Cabin" variation (detail), c. 1940
Cotton and rayon, 88 x 73 in.; Minneapolis Institute of Art, Museum purchase and gift of the Souls Grown Deep Foundation
Lottie Mooney’s “Housetop”—four-block “Half-Log Cabin” variation exhibits a restrained yet vibrant color palette. Her pattern is a visual play—a kaleidoscope stripped to its essential elements. The seemingly radical gesture of dismantling traditional patterns and reconstructing them in a way unique to the artist is a hallmark of the imaginative spirit inherent in the Gee’s Bend style.
Here the focus is on the inherent design elements and abstract imagery in the quilts rather than as finished objects.
