Based on the principles of the Bauhaus, but with the courage to experiment, the German artist developed her own artistic position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a radical departure from traditional weaving designs, she explored the qualities of both tested as well as new materials, often working in series. Dawo's skilful research of the properties of her fabrics and materials allowed her to move beyond the two-dimensionality of the woven surface and create works with a sculptural character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis publication draws on the estate of her long-underrepresented oeuvre, which includes not only woven pieces but also hitherto unseen drawings.
