NARRATIVE SEQUENCES

The Center for Book Arts is pleased to present
NARRATIVE SEQUENCES
an exhibition organized by Maddy Rosenberg, independent curator

Opening Reception: Wednesday, January 20, 2010
6 to 8 pm
Exhibition On View Through April 3, 2010

NEW YORK CITY - The new exhibition Narrative Sequences will focus on work that creates a sequence of images that leads from one to another as a literal or an implied narration unfolds. By this narrowing down to a single aspect of an artist's book, Rosenberg is able to broaden the varieties of how artists explore telling a story, through form and content. For each of these artists in these works, a narrative emerges through the relationship of the previous to the following. They explore various commentaries on societies through who we are as a whole or as individuals, through personal experience or as participants in a broader culture, in an explicit way or a more abstract dance of natural forms.

Participating artists include, Christoff Baron, Zane Berzina, Chris Bierl, Jay Bolotin, Sang-ah Choi, Beatrice Coron, Bill Creston, Kahn/Selesnick, Ben Katchor, Rachel Lumsden, Rafael Mundi, Heidi Neilson, Julia Schmid, Karina Skvirsky, Simona Soare.

A comprehensive catalog accompanies the exhibition.

Exhibition organizer Maddy Rosenberg is an artist and independent curator. She recently opened Central Booking, a two gallery space in DUMBO, Brooklyn, focusing on artist's books and prints and their integration into the larger art world.
