Printed textile, Burkina Faso, the Faso Fani Mill, 1975-1995. This Purchased by the Newark Museum for its celebrated African textile collection in 1995. This is a detail of a wonderful roller-printed cotton cloth, made in Burkina Faso for use as a wrapper and head-cloth. The pattern of mosques and calligraphy make it the perfect contemporary note for our upcoming showcase of our Islamic art collection opening in October. - Ulysses Grant Dietz, Chief Curator
