>The radical, grand-scale textile sculptures of the late Polish artist are a sensory delight in this sensitively curated show "Anyone who has ever worked with wool, never mind actual weaving, will immediately understand how staggering was her technical achievement. Abakanowicz turned the traditional warp in all directions. You even see it lying sideways in one work. She was capable of weaving in different materials, tensions and densities all at once, of piecing fragments seamlessly together. A beam of silver light in gossamer thread shines down through a canyon of knotted grey sisal, for instance, without any slackness. I have no idea how it is done."
