Wire Crochet

I wanted to share some details about some of the pictures I posted from our trip to San Francisco. We went to museums & galleries, some would let you takes pictures but most would not, the de Young Museum located inside Golden Gate Park did allow us to take photos of all but one exhibit.

The artist of this exhibit is Ruth Asawa and the exhibit was simply called "Wire Sculptures". She is pretty amazing, you can read more about her on her website.

The following are Crocheted Wire Sculptures
made of iron, copper, & brass wire.

These are part of her Tied Wire series.


I love art & love things made of wire and metal so it was easy picking this as my favorite exhibit.
