Art librarian Lindsey Reynolds returned from Printed Matter’s New York Art Book Fair last week conflicted about limiting her selection of art book purchases in a fair that boasts several floors of vendors. Nevertheless, she is happy to report an exciting variety of acquisitions for the UGA Art Library and the Athenaeum Lupin Reading Room!

Below, Reynolds shares a preview of the titles she purchased at the annual fair that celebrates “the history and future of artists’ book publishing.” On her experience, she remarked, “Back for the first time since fall 2019, it was exciting to see all of the artists and publishers still going strong.”

Here is a snapshot of some of the titles Lindsey brought home for the UGA Libraries.

Reynolds shares, “It was so hard to choose from all the treasures at the fair, but these cover a broad range of media and subjects, from New Zealand jeweler Lisa Walker to the historic ephemera of student protests to a photobook about Allensworth, California the first town in that state to be founded, financed, and governed exclusively by Black people.” To delve deeper, check out Capricious Publishing, nan collymore, Perimeter Books, and Soberscove Press.

The books are off to be cataloged and will be available for checkout at the Art Library soon!
