Cary Leibowitz, Director of Contemporary Editions, Phillips de Pury & Company, New York, in conversation with artonpaper’s editor & co-publisher, Peter Nesbett
What impact will the recent upheavals in the U.S. financial industry have on the market for contemporary prints and multiples? This casual conversation will reflect on the fall print sales and offer predictions for the year ahead.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 1: CONVERSATIONS WITH ARTISTS
1:00-1:30pm: Artist Richard Tuttle in conversation with Brodsky Center Master Papermaker Anne McKeown
For the past forty years, Richard Tuttle has made artists’ books and multiples an integral part of his practice. He and Anne McKeown will talk about his recent artist book, The Missing Portrait (a collaboration with poet John Yau).
2:00-2:30pm: OMIGod Lesley Dill Created an Opera
Lesley Dill, who is a visual artist committed to language, just completed one of the most challenging works of her career—an opera based on the complete works of Emily Dickinson. Dill served as originator, artistic director, librettist, video designer, costume designer, and co-producer, with Richard Marriott as the composer. She will show images and play audio from the opera.
3:00-3:30pm: Artist James Siena and artist/writer Marjorie Welish talk about their new collaboration, Oaths? Questions?, soon to be published by Granary Books
Oaths? Questions? is a resolutely collaborative project that extends the basic concept of the poet / painter project into new ground where both participants contribute words and images. As Marjorie Welish comments, "The object is not so much a book as the functions of seeing and reading distributed back and forth across pages."
4:00-4:30pm: Artist Jill Magid on the Dutch Secret Service: Burning it Through Print
For the past three years, New York-based artist Jill Magid has been working on a commission for the Dutch Secret Service (AIVD). She has done extensive research into the organization, interviewing secret agents and producing a body of work—prints, sculpture, neon—that were exhibited recently (and have since sparked legal controversy) at Stroom Den Haag in the Netherlands.
