Liz

Whitney Quisgard

Inspired by Moorish architecture and Byzantine mosaics, New York artist, Liz Quisgard creates a thousand and one nights vision through embroidered abstract tapestries and columns. The artist refers to her work in fiber as “pseudo pointillism” that combines creating painstaking patterns and structured designs with jewel like colors. Her work does not attempt to communicate anything but
visual delight:
“No meanings. No Preachments. No Symbols.”
Liz has exhibited at the Chicago Art Institute, the Corcoran Gallery, the Baltimore Museum of Art, and at the Museum of Geometric and MADI Art.
Liz earned her MFA at the Maryland Institute Rinehart School of Sculpture and is the recipient of the Pollack-Krasner Foundation Grant in 2001.

MADI is a great artistic adventure, and perhaps, the only existing movement which can justify half a century of existence. MADI is more than an avant-garde movement; it has an underlying wave with several and differing offspring. It is the slow-paced growth of a tectonic plate in the history of art. Indeed, since art and environment are perveived as the fusion of two cultural phenomena, the progression and expression of both of these blend in everyday life.
