Soft: Works from the University Collection 12 May 2012 – 12 Aug 2012 The Art Gallery’s special mandate to collect textile-based art, due to the medium’s traditional association with women, is augmented in this selection by the inclusion of another material associated with domesticity—aluminum foil.
