June 8, 2012

Congrats to Art and the Book students, Elizabeth Curren and Whitney Stahl, who recently provided a lecture at the Rare Book Reading Room at the Library of Congress. 

On June 7, Elizabeth Curren explored two contemporary represenations of Jorge Luis Borge's fictional Second Encyclopedia from Tlön.  By examing the expansive encyclopedias creared by Barbara and Markus Fahrner and by Ines on Ketelhodt and Pter Malutzki, Curren places the modern artist's book in the continuum of the history of the encyclopedia.
