Hard to Define: Artists’ Books from the Collection

Nov 20, 2017, to Mar 23, 2018

Exhibition Note

Information about this exhibition is limited.

“What are artists’ books?” is a common question and can be hard to answer. Some look like books, but others don’t. Some are made from paper; others aren’t. Some have words; others don’t. But all artists’ books combine form and content in a way that conveys information. On view are selected artists’ books that are, by turns, magical, strange, awe-inspiring, confusing, or humorous.
