Textile and Wallpaper Block Printing, 18th to 20th c.
2nd floor, Alfred R. Goldstein Library
Opened November 9, 2018

This new permanent exhibit presents a historical snapshot of the hand and machine processes involved in creating pattern blocks and producing decorative designs for wearable textiles and home furnishings. The blocks, castings, and roller on display were generously donated to the Center by Patrick Lindhardt, Professor Emeritus, Ringling College of Art + Design.

(Special thanks to Dr. Philip A. Sykas, Manchester School of Art, and Amanda Hinckle, Winterthur Museum, for their research assistance.)

Step and Repeat: Pattern in Artists' Publications
2nd floor, Alfred R. Goldstein Library
November 9, 2018 through December 15, 2018

Step and Repeat excavates the pleasures of pattern in the coverings, interiors, linings, and details of thirty artists' publications. Visually arranged into conceptual motifs (flora & fauna, power, psychedelic, geometric, experimental, liquid, figures, and security), these books aim to mesmerize, distract, propel, disrupt, and entice the reader.

B-SSCC #05: an untitled show about Trump, the alt-right, and the state of things
The Center releases its fifth title in the Exhibition Takeaways series: an untitled show about Trump, the alt-right, and the state of things. Available as a gold Riso-printed booklet and a digital download. It grapples with current affairs through the ephemera, publications, and politically-engaged art of artists and activists, and includes a short essay by the curator.
