About this Item

Approximately 9 by 12 inch folder with 6 8 ½ by 11 inch sheets of paper and a folded George Eastman House Newsletter. Folder with color artwork, a Xerox 6500 print by Erin Goodwin, on the front cover. A collection of handouts describing the agenda for the November 10-11, 1979 symposium at the George Eastman House titled "Electroworks." This symposium and art exhibit focused on work by artists using copy machines, Xerox and other electromechanical reproductive machines to create art. The symposium featured many lectures on creating art, the preservation of the art, the use of Xerox and electrostatic printing and other subjects. Included in the folder are itineraries, a map and list of nearby restaurants, a newsletter with an article on Electroworks, etc. The exhibit itself was the first of its kind, but according to Artforum, the art did not live up to its expectations. GOOD condition. Some wrinkling, toning and creasing to the folder, with scuffing along the edges. Some of the inserts with ink notes written on them.
