(Center for Book Arts) \FLO\: ART, TEXT, NEW MEDIA
New York Center for Book Arts 2009 square 8vo. stiff paper wrappers 32 pages
Text and image are two forms of communication that have enormous potential to combine, intermingle, blend, and flow - thus creating new modes of expression. This exhibition, held in New York from April 15 to June 27, 2009, features over thirty artists, whose backgrounds are in different media, including painting, sculpture, video and performance art, printing, and the book arts. These artists are exhibiting new work that exemplifies the creative dynamism of melding the written word with visual arts. Exhibition Curator Rocío Aranda-Alvarado says: "Through the imaginative prism of these artists, it's no longer necessary to regard text and image as separate substances, like oil and water. Instead, they have profound potential to blend and create a synthesis of expressive forms, something beyond the realm of traditional media." Digitally printed with color illustrations.

Coordinated by Ilse de Graaf and Lara Frankena, this exhibition was held in New York from January 20 through March 30, 1996. Recognizing the potential influence of books in defining a person's gender identity and sexual expression, this exhibition of artists' books examined the relationship between the book and sexual practices. It also explored the diversity of contemporary sexual experience and the current attitudes towards human physicality, male/female relations, homosexuality, AIDS, and desire. These works assert the innumerable ways a book can express ideas concerning the most intimate aspects of an individual, as well as the larger political concerns related to sexual orientation and gender issues.

(Center for Book Arts) Hoff, James and Alan Licht EAR TO THE PAGE
New York Center for Book Arts 2010 12.5 x 12.5 inches LP Record Jacket one sheet folded, printed on both sides
This exhibition brings multi-media, mixed media, and performance art to the forefront in book arts through albums as a biography, a book, an exhibition catalogue, and many other varieties by exploring and intertwining the aspects of recordings and books, and the idea that any document can exist through sound.

The invention of the album made way for the recording of sound just as the printing press made way for the mass production of books. Many artists today explore the connection between sound and the written word, and the way these two can be interchanged. This is demonstrated through examples of albums as biographies, books with sound components, and books as musical scores.

(Center for Book Arts) MASTERS OF THE CRAFT: WORKS BY INSTRUCTORS OF BOOK ARTS.
New York Center for Book Arts 1994 square 12mo. stiff paper wrappers 24 pages.
This is a catalogue for an exhibition held in New York from January 14 to March 25, 1994, which contained the work of printers, bookbinders and papermakers who are all instructors of the book arts, as well as artists in their own right. Some of the participating artists were Marcia Ciro, Nadja Press, Peter and Donna Thomas, and Mary Phelan. Contemporary book artists have long appreciated the great value of learning bookmaking from an accomplished master of the form, yet recognized that the best teacher is not the one who merely has the technical expertise to create a well made object, but rather the artist who is able to reveal an original sensibility in his or her work. Though this exhibition affirmed a collective respect for the traditions of bookmaking among all whose book works are shown, it also demonstrated the power of the book to express the unique vision of each artist. These works were created by the craftspeople that link us to the history of the book as they inspire a new generation to define the book in their own time. Photocopied catalogue with translucent endpaper and blue paper covers.

(Center for Book Arts) PAPER, ART AND THE BOOK
New York Center for Book Arts 1996 large 12mo. paperback pamphlet, hand sewn (36) pages
This exhibition, held in New York from September 28 to December 7, 1996, reveals the innovative ways artists utilize paper to express ideas conveyed in books and broadsides. Rather than viewing paper as merely a neutral substrate, many of these works employ unusual or evocative papers that integrate the medium's physical components, fiber, watermark, decorative elements, weight and texture with the final work's text and image, or even guide the structure and intent of the book itself. In all the works in this exhibition, paper is a form of tangible memory, and demonstrates human efforts to convert the products of the earth into a medium for expressing the thoughts of one person to another, one generation to those who will follow. Pamphlet stitched with letterpress printed covers, black and white illustrations.

(Center for Book Arts) van Haaften-Schick, Laura CANCELED: ALTERNATIVE MANIFESTATIONS AND PRODUCTIVE FAILURES.
New York Center for Book Arts 2012 6.7 x 10.25 inches paperback 54 pages
Canceled: Alternative Manifestations and Productive Failures is a catalogue accompanying the Center for Book Arts exhibition of the same name. The catalogue presents a selection of canceled or otherwise prohibited exhibitions that now exist as publications or in other formats. It brings together self-produced publications and documentation of exhibitions or active social interventions in which the artists bypass formal environments (museums, art fairs, and galleries) via alternative modes of communication. These publications and documentation bring to light critical commentary questioning "established" external institutional protocol and highlight books as a mean of disseminating information in social, political, and cultural issues on a wide and accessible scale, potentially in ways more stable and effective than the original exhibition would have been.

Each entry in the catalogue is accompanied by a short history of the exhibition, the reason for its cancellation, the steps taken to preserve and share its message, and pictures, excerpts, or ephemera from or about the exhibition.

(Center for Book Arts) WILLEM SANDBERG: FROM THE NETHERLANDS.
From the Netherlands New York Center for Book Arts (1988) square 8vo. stiff paper wrappers 31+(1) pages
In 1988, The Center for the Book Arts held the first in a series of annual exhibitions focusing on contemporary book artists from Europe and Asia. This exhibition presented the work of the typographer and book designer, William Sandberg (1897-1984). The outstanding characteristic of Sandberg's design is its vitality. Time has not diminished its impact; we now see more clearly his inventiveness and variety. Sandberg delighted in playing off the severe shapes of type against collage, torn paper and objets trouvé. His pamphlets, books, catalogs and posters combine colors, languages and typefaces in a dazzling display of imagination. In addition to the list of items on display, the catalogue contains a biography of Sandberg along with descriptions and black-and-white illustrations for the books.
