Jann Haworth was a major figure in U.K. pop art and co-designed the cover for the Beatles’ "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band."
Her work Biscuit is currently on display in The Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art’s exhibition, “Women’s Work: New Additions to the NEHMA Collection,” which showcases creations by female artists that have recently entered NEHMA's collection. The exhibit runs through July 15.
Wikipedia says that "Jann Haworth is an American artist and sculptor. She was raised in Hollywood. She learned to sew at an early age from her mother, Miriam Haworth, a distinguished ceramist, print-maker and painter, and it is this skill, together with her inside experience of film-making, that gives her work its unique character."
Jann Haworth will join us for the hour today, along with NEHMA curator Danielle Stewart.
