Did you know you can book a fascinating one-hour artists' books presentation at FAU Libraries' Jaffe Center for Book Arts? And did you know that summer is the very best time of year to do so? Parking is a breeze while the vast majority of our university students are off on summer adventures. That makes JCBA a perfect summer adventure for you and your book club, art club, social group... gather anywhere from 8 to 24 people and we'd love to show you what JCBA is all about. You'll never look at books the same way again. Email JCBA Director John Cutrone (jcutrone@fau.edu) to learn more and schedule your visit!
For our fall into winter exhibition, I've gathered books, prints, and other pieces from the Jaffe Collection and from my own collection.
Many of these items have profound meaning to me, and I envision them in this setting in conversation with each other. I invite you to come
and decipher your own conversations amongst the pieces, but for me, it all boils down to one piece in particular, a print by E. Oscar Maynard
of Tender-Heart Press, and this is what it says: "Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world's grief. You are not obligated to complete the
work, but neither are you free to abandon it."
