FEBRUARY 19th-21st, 2010

Sketchbooks offers a glimpse into an artist’s life,
which is why we want to make a publicly accessible library of
sketchbooks that people can browse, peruse, and check out. We think
that this sketchbook collection has the potential to open a new line
of communication between the artist and the viewer, since the
experience of making and viewing are both so personal. Anyone can sign
up to receive a sketchbook. Before joining our permanent collection,
sketchbooks will be exhibited at select galleries across the US. Each
sketchbook will be barcoded and cataloged, allowing visitors to choose
what they want to look at via theme, medium, geographic location, name
of the artist, etc.

Sketchbooks will be show in LA, Brooklyn (303GRAND!), Chicago, Atlanta, and
St. Louis.

Exhibition Hours:

Friday, 7-11 p.m. (Q&A from 7-8). Saturday, 8-11 p.m. & Sunday, 12-3 p.m.
