About this Item

Hardcover. The Brodsky Center at Rutgers: Three Decades, 1986-2017, chronicles the history and artists involved with an internationally acclaimed print and papermaking studio at Rutgers University. Judith K. Brodsky conceived, founded, and directed the atelier, which, from its onset, provided state-of-the-arts technology and expertise for under-represented contemporary artists - women, Indigenous, and from diasporas of the African, Eastern European, Latin and Asian communities - to make innovative works on paper. These artistic creations presented new narratives to American and global visual arts from voices previously not heard or seen. Some of the artists featured in the book include Faith Ringgold, Elizabeth Catlett, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Miriam Schapiro, Pepon Osorio, Kiki Smith, and Richard Tuttle, among many other talented and influential printmakers and artists. Published in partnership with the Zimmerli Museum. "This book accompanies the exhibition 'The Brodsky Center at Rutgers University: Three Decades, 1986-2017' at the Zimmerli Art Museum, Rutgers, The State Univeristy of New Jersey"--Colophon.
