Dear Philadelphians,
I will give a talk on artists' publication as part of the Institute of Contemporary Art's current lecture series called
Excursus, which has been featuring artists that make books, book designers and independent publishers.
Follow the link here for more info:

It would be great to see colleagues there.
In other, non-Philadelphia news, MoMA Library just opened a new exhibition last week that draws from our artists' files and subject files. The exhibition features special invitation cards and event flyers from c.1960-1980. It is called
Please Come to the Show. You can find a brief description of the show here:
http://www.moma.org/visit/calendar/exhibitions/1377. A larger, illustrated website with a checklist will be launched in the coming days. Also, check out a few install shots that are posted on our tumblr page:
http://momalibrary.tumblr.com/. Our exhibitions are located in the mezzanine of the Education Building of the museum and can be reached during a visit to the museum or free of charge by entering through the 4 W. 54th St. entrance to the Ed. Bldg. Come visit!
best wishes.
