  • FOR-SITE's executive director @cheryllhaines is in Cairo this week conducting interviews and capturing footage for an upcoming film about @aiww's "@ Large" installation "Yours Truly." In her spare moments she's grabbed some great shots of marketplaces, textiles, and more -- perfect inspiration for "Sanctuary!"
  • While you're admiring this zoomed-in look at the "Sanctuary" rug designed by Nicholas Galanin, pause for a moment to reflect on the fact that this rug was HAND KNOTTED. Hats off to the incredibly talented rug makers @alrugcom. #ArtAboutPlace #Sanctuary
  • FOR-SITE's program director @jaxvontreskow opening the latest shipment of rugs from @alrugcom. The rug peeking through the plastic wrapping is from @uman__. It's a stunning rug, and it's reeeeaaally hard not to show it to you here... but hey, we have to keep some things a surprise for our October 7 opening 😉. #ArtAboutPlace #Sanctuary
  • Another teaser look at one of the "Sanctuary" rug designs -- this one from @anateresafernandez. See the complete rug -- and 35 others -- when "Sanctuary" opens October 7. #ArtAboutPlace #Sanctuary
