WASHINGTON, DC.- Something Pertaining to God: The Patchwork Art of Rosie Lee Tompkins features approximately twenty-five quilts and other quilted pieces—including clothing, chair covers, and pillows—by this acclaimed African American artist. Organized by the Shelburne Museum, this exhibition draws from the private holdings of Eli Leon, the foremost collector of Tompkins’ work. The first solo exhibition on the East coast featuring this remarkable art, Tompkins’ quilts were included in the 2002 Whitney Biennial in New York, have been part of group exhibitions nationwide, and are included in major museum collections.
