The exhibition “A New Hook: Re-thinking Needlework” sets out to explore current responses to the notion of craft, in particular needlework, in order to examine its impact in the discourse of art, design, architecture and everyday life. It runs at the Museum of Design in Zurich through July 24, 2011.
