This event accompanies the exhibition Every Book a Mirror: Book Artists Engage with the 21st Century, currently on display in the Wilson Special Collections Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It features
works from the Sloane Art Library’s collection ranging from one-of-a-kind, handmade artists’ books like Minner’s
The Exquisite Lumbee, to artists’ publications made to accompany performances or interventions like Dread Scott’s
The Fragments of the Peculiar Institution, to Web-to-print work like Zachary Norman’s
Endangered Data. There are over 70 artists’ books and zines on display.
A digital version of the exhibition is available here:
