Summary / Abstract:

ENThe Baltic School of Textile Art is a term used in the 1960s and 1980s to denote textile art in Soviet Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. The article aims to provide an insight into the circumstances of the origin of this term and examine the school’s idiosyncrasy in the context of landscape representation. According to the data obtained in the study, the term’s introduction was determined by regionally oriented exhibition practice, the relevant folk art traditions and the similarities in the treatment of visual content and materiality of textiles. In this context, the dominance of landscape motifs can be considered one of the school’s most characteristic features.
