Boxes on Boxes!

2023-06-08T02:01:45-04:00Exhibition, Articles, News|

Boxes on Boxes! The boxes for Reader's Art are piling up! The computer lumbers under the photo rendering stress! Old boxes are reclaimed from storage to pack up Uncommon Textiles! Uncommon Textiles, with Sara Christensen Blair and Rachel Star Suntop was well attended right up to the last possible moment! One of the last people to see that show is one of the artists in Reader's Art 10: Buzz Spector. Buzz has been around the book world for years, teaching, writing and producing artwork that comments on the book and literature. He and I had a series of "small world" encounters in our brief visit. He knows Rachel Suntop. He taught with her mother, Bea Nettles, years ago and stays in touch with Rachel on Facebook. Until recently, he taught at Cornell, in my home town of Ithaca, NY and he is now Dean at Washington University in St. Louis...a school I came very close to attending (42 years ago!). White Insistence, one of the three books he will have in the show, is a limited edition printed to be torn-away so the story is revealed across multiple pages at once. FYI, I uploaded all the jpg's I [...]
