Description:
A beautiful hardcover book detailing the life and work of artist Morris David Dorenfeld, (1937-2023), who lived in Maine. He learned to weave in 1978 and brought his abstract expressionist roots as a painter to the medium, composing large tapestries—”paintings in fiber.” During his almost 45-year career as a weaver, Morris Dorenfeld has exhibited throughout Maine and New England and also in Arizona, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, and Santiago, Chile. His tapestries emphasize harmony, proportion, balance, and above all the visual music of color.
