With Fabric of Art, 51 visual artists from numerous countries are transforming the 8,000 sqm2 listed industrial site of the former Kaiser & Dicke ribbon weaving factory in Wuppertal-Barmen into a temporary open space.

Fabric of Art is an artistic exploration through all media of the visual arts at a location that not only exemplifies the history of the city of Wuppertal, but also current global developments shaped by industry.
