30 Years of Innovation: A Survey of Exhibition History at The Center for Book Arts, 1974-2004
April 15, 2005 - July 1, 2005
Organized by Jae Jennifer Rossman, Special Collections Librarian, Arts Library, Yale University.
Over the last 30 years the Center has presented over 140 exhibitions with the underlying purpose of explaining and exploring the concept of book art. This exhibition will survey the Center's rich and diverse exhibition history. The majority of the Center's past exhibitions fall into five broad categories: Community, Concept-Driven, Object-Oriented, Spotlight, and World View. A selection of contemporary and classic works from the more than 1200 artists who have exhibited at the Center will illustrate these themes and will reflect the Center's consistent focus on the future of the book arts.
