Artists' Books and Africa


Since artists’ books are not normally associated with African art, our goal in this exhibition is to introduce the genre and survey its “African” manifestations. Opens September 16, 2015 at the National Museum of African Art in Washington, DC.

Vibrant Visions- Pochoir Prints in the Cooper-Hewitt

Vibrant Visions: Pochoir Prints in the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum Library


The pochoir process, characterized by its crisp lines and brilliant colors, produces images that have a freshly printed or wet appearance. The Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum Library, Smithsonian Institution Libraries, has a rich collection of vibrantly colored illustrated books and periodicals that were created using this process. Explore the history of pochoir with select examples from the library's collection that illustrate costume, interior, and pattern designs produced in France from 1900 through the 1930s.
