Let Books Be Your Pleasure Gardens

Kirschbaum

Exhibited in analogue form in the spring of 2011 at Yale University's Sterling Library, Let Books Be Your Pleasure Gardens is now an online exhibition.  The books on view represent the work of artists who have a deep emotional attachment to the texts they illustrate and who bring this passion in their work. They are from the United States, Israel and Europe and they explore their Jewish heritage in different and very personal ways. 

The exhibition includes books by Andi Arnovitz, Robert Kirschbaum, Judith Margolis,  and Mark Podwal, and are drawn from the Yale University Library's Arts of the Book Collection, part of the Robert B. Haas Family Arts Library Special Collections.
