FREED FORMATS: the book reconsidered
Traveling Exhibition, March-October 2019
Freed Formats: the book reconsidered is a traveling exhibition of 135 works of book art from 53 artists representing 17 US states and 2 countries. Freed Formats will appeal to all ages. Each person has a different feeling about what a book means to them, and book art engages anyone who has ever read, written or, for that matter, just held a book in their hands.
I have 3 books in this exhibit: Memento Mori, Autumn Kimono (pictured to right), and Two Spoons Paired.
Dates and locations for the exhibition are:
- March 30 to April 28, 2019: Ridgefield Guild of Artists & Ridgefield Library, Ridgefield, CT & Mark Twain Library, West Redding, CT
- May 12 to June 9, 2019: Putnam Arts Council & Mahopac Public Library, Mahopac, NY & related programs at Studio Around the Corner, Brewster, NY
- June 15 to July 28, 2019: Creative Arts Workshop, New Haven, CT
- Sept. 19 to Oct. 19, 2019: Five Points Gallery, Torrington, CT
