Tasha Lewis: The Art of the Page A Visual Edition of Joyce’s Ulysses

May 6 – September 3, 2016

OPENING RECEPTION May 6 | 5 – 8 pm
Artist Talk at 6:30 pm

This massive visual undertaking dives headfirst into Joyce’s masterpiece, with the artist creating one image for every page of text. Using the Gabler edition of Ulysses, Lewis travels the book, shifting media by chapter, moving from collage to photography, monoprints, encaustic, drawing, totaling 18 different media over the course of 644 pages. More information at: www.TashaLewis.info

The Gallery Upstairs at the Institute Library features a challenging roster of contemporary art exhibitions throughout the year. We offer visual art with strong connections to words, language, literature, libraries, and collections, with the active interest of sparking dialogue, providing a locus and salon for visual culture within our community.

This event is free and open to the public; we do want to remind people who’ve never been here before that the Institute Library can only be reached by walking up a flight of stairs, and the Library is not ADA-compliant.
