The crown jewel of Salon 94’s presentation of work by Catalan artist Josep Grau-Garriga (1929–2011) is “Llum de Febrer,” a weaving he completed in 1981 that spans more than 20 feet and incorporates the colors of a desert sunrise. It’s an example of how, in an attempt to free himself from traditional tapestry-making, Grau-Garriga incorporated other materials into his work, including rope, jute, copper, wool, and silk, resulting in a tactile feast for the eyes.
