Description

Professor Suki Kwon from the Department of Art and Design, and students Sara Wolf and Elena Bellisario are engaged in an independent study of a new special collection held in University Archives. An artist’s book is a medium of artistic expression that uses the form or function of “book” as inspiration. It is the artistic initiative seen in the illustration, choice of materials, creation process, layout and design that makes it an art object. The University Libraries acquired the collection this summer and since then Suki has been working with Sara and Elena to create a catalog of the books and to plan for an exhibit that will be held in the Rose Gallery.
