Wil Fruytier, born as Wilhelmina Elisabeth Maria van der Lande (14 January 1915 - Amsterdam, 13 June 2007) was a Dutch textile artist that resided and worked in Amsterdam.
Fruytier was especially active between 1950 and 1980, and can be regarded as one of the pioneers of textile art. She originally made woven gobelins. Later, she would come to create internationally acclaimed patchwork quilts,[1] which were displayed at the Venice Biennale in 1961. Her most expressive works are her rope tapestries, which are rope cloths made of rough cables. It is through the use of thick cables and colourful materials that her works are so characterful.
Fruytier referred to herself as a "textile architect", as she aimed for a spatial creation with her large rugs.
In 1961 she took part in patchwork quilts at the Venice Biennale.
Her work is represented in the collections of, among others: the Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands (Amersfoort / Rijswijk), Delta Lloyd Amsterdam, Eindhoven University of Technology, Bouwfonds art collection.
