I saw this article about women rug weavers in Turkey and then ran across this article about women artists in Turkey in the NY Times. Makes for some interesting thinking, a nice juxtaposition—well, I don’t know what—maybe ancient and modern? There are lots of pictures on the rug weaving site, but the newspaper article only includes two pictures of the works/artists mentioned in the article. I would really like to see more.
