The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Anni Albers described “the one-thread event” as the possibility of constantly re-examining and re-structuring relationships and interconnections. The works found in the exhibition The Event of a Thread they bring together objects, installations and video essays that carry with them the context of each fabric, its specific qualities and its stories. Thus, they reveal the close relationship between themselves and the various aspects of our lives.

The core of the exhibition brings together 16 contemporary artists, each of whom creates aesthetically and culturally charged narratives. The works make visible the relationships that each artist has with their choice of materials, which takes a specific spatial form and functions as a means of transmitting information. As with textiles, the materiality and manufacture of the works presented allow cultural codes and aesthetic transfers to be simultaneously articulated, also taking into account the autonomy of the work of art.

For her itinerary in Mexico, this conversation is intertwined with the incorporation of 10 pieces from the Museo Tamayo-INBAL collection, which extends a dialogue from the modern and the contemporary through formal and conceptual experimentation with the textile technique. The pieces also reveal how textile transcends its strictly material dimension to become a means of exploring abstraction, color and the multiple expressive possibilities of form.

Like this, The Event of a Thread places special emphasis on the information that is stored inside textiles: What can a fabric tell us about its origins, its meaning and its social role? What were the economic conditions and social structures in which formal patterns and styles developed? What traditional techniques are those that artists have abstracted, which have they transposed or resurrected?
