Try the Grove Dictionary of Art. I don’t have access to it here, but I know that it has an excellent history of auction catalogs and I would assume it also has a good history of exhibition catalogs. --Joan

Hello collective wisdom,
I'm forwarding on this query from another listserv, about good sources for a history of exhibition catalogues. And Canadian war art in particular!
If you could reply directly to Alicia, she would appreciate it.
Cheers!

Hi All,
I'm working on compiling a brief history of exhibition catalogues and I could use some assistance locating sources. I'm writing specifically on exhibition catalogues of Canadian war art of the First World War, but would like to provide a general overview of catalogue history first. Any information regarding catalogues in general or Canadian war art in particular would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for your help,
Alicia
