On Rugs and art

On Rugs and art

Left, Bal, a Boujad rug from our upcoming Morocco launch.
Right, Etel Adnan's Forêt automnale, 2015. Wool tapestry. More info here.

 

We've paired a few of our favorite pieces from our first collection of Moroccan rugs with pieces of art that seem to share their DNA. Made in a wide variety of mediums, these art pairings speak to each other in similar visual languages across time and space. Some, like the last pair, were likely even made around the same decade, and feature the same motifs: frolicking 6 and 8 pointed stars.

 

 
Left, Amireh, a Beni M'rirt piece from our upcoming Morocco launch.
Right, Agnes Martin's Little Sister, 1962. Oil, ink, and brass nails on canvas over wood. More info here.

 



Left, Noomi, a Boujad piece from our upcoming Morocco launch.
Right, a page from Louise Bourgeois' Ode à l'oubli, 2002, handmade cloth book. In Moma's permanent collection. More info here.



Left, Iannone, a Beni M'Guild piece named for the artist whose work it resembles.
Right, Dorothy Iannone's The Darling Duck, 1983-4, a triptych of felt pen and ink on Bristol board. More info here.
