Sorry Powells but Monograph is my favorite bookstore in Portland for a good reason and it is great to see the shopkeepers curate a show called
Specific Turn at OCAC. Here is the PR:
"Acting as curators, artists John Brodie and Blair Saxon-Hill present a selection of books on art, craft, architecture and design including rare, out-of-print and small press publications. As booksellers and artists, the pair will exhibit a selection of books exploring current and re-emerging ideas in the contemporary study and practice of art and craft. Concepts explored will include, among others, the changing notion of the book, an interest in the tactile, and Utopian architecture and craft.
Available at the opening reception and through the end of the exhibit will be a free Selected Bibliography broadside (28" x 22.5") in an edition of 500, produced by John and Blair of Monograph Bookwerks."
Opening Reception: Thursday, Sept. 13 from 4-7pm
Specific Turn: September 6-30, 2012
Oregon College of Art and Craft
8245 SW Barnes Road, Portland, OR 97225
Exhibit open daily, 10am-3pm
