Tuesday 28 August, 11am - 12:30pm. Free to attend for Friends of the ATW. Bookings essential.
The Friends Reading Circle at the Australian Tapestry Workshop is a free book club for Friends of the ATW. We meet to discuss books that broadly cover topics related to art, design, history, fiction and non-fiction. Whether you’ve had a chance to read the nominated book or not, you are welcome to join the discussion. Each session will include a tour of the ATW and current tapestries and exhibitions at ATW. Light refreshments are provided.
The book for this session is "In Praise of Shadows" by Junichiro Tanizaki. This highly influential essay on Japanese aesthetics was originally published in 1933.
