Knowledge Center Special Collection of Books

Conexus (image 1)Conexus (image 1)Conexus (image 1)


This piece is called Conexus. It is a collaboration exhibition between thirty-two female artist from Brazil and the US. This project, according to the online description, is a letter-writing project intended to gather information and explore the relation between art and culture that take place in each location. This project was created in 1986, making it a unique perspective of women from a generation before my own.

What draw me to the piece was the contrast between the dark red, light cream and black colors. I find this particular color pallet to be pleasing. The picture in the way the book is set up is also really interesting. The separating of the larger book into the small context was great because it lessened the impact and made it more agreeable.
