The Secret is the Paper
curated by Exhibitions/Collections Assistant Breanne Bandur
The Secret Is the Paper (exhibition title from John Berger’s essay, “To Take Paper, to Draw”) features selected works on paper from the permanent collection. From quick notations on torn pages and in sketchbooks, to elaborate prints on carefully handled rag, this exhibition surveys diverse approaches to the treatment of paper, as well as the range of relationships artists share with their substrates. The Secret Is the Paper shares some of the material histories held in the permanent collection.
