browngrotta arts is pleased to announce its Art for a Cause 2021 project — a charitable sweepstakes opportunity in partnership with UncommonGood to win a museum-quality work by renowned California textile artist Lia Cook, with proceeds to benefit the Breast Cancer Alliance.

The prize includes Spatial Ikat III-2, 1976, (rayon, cotton; woven, 72" x 48") valued at $35,0000, a virtual meeting with the artist, and a monograph Lia Cook: In the Folds - Works from 1973 - 1997, donated by browngrotta arts. The winner will also receive a $7,500 cash prize from UncommonGood. The sweepstake runs through July 31 on uncommongood.io

browngrotta arts, dealers of contemporary fiber art for over 30 years, is partnering with UncommonGood, a platform that provides comprehensive software solutions for nonprofit organizations. “We are thrilled to partner with UncommonGood in this sweepstakes,” says Rhonda Brown, co-curator at browngrotta arts. "With the tools that UncommonGood offers nonprofits, groups like the Breast Cancer Alliance can engage more donors and greatly amplify their reach."

Lia Cook has been an innovator since the outset of her artistic career. In 1973, following graduate school, she received an invitation to the prestigious International Lausanne Tapestry Biennial in Switzerland where she exhibited with fiber art trailblazers Magdalena Abakanowicz and Sheila Hicks. Spatial Ikat III-2, 1976 is an important work by Cook from that period.

"From a seminal period of her career, the work combines the masterful technique and sensory viewer experience for which Cook is celebrated." - Tom Grotta, co-curator at browngrotta arts
