JANUARY 26, 2024 — The UTSA College of Liberal and Fine Arts (COLFA) and UTSA Arts present Boundless: Storytelling in Texas Book Arts. This compelling exhibition, open through February 23, 2024, features an array of contemporary artist books, illustrations and ’zines.
"This exhibition unites a multitude of works, many of which will be displayed for the first time,” said Kristy Masten, professor of instruction at the School of Art and curator of the exhibition. “It includes 'zines, commissioned artist books from UTSA Libraries Special Collections and an installation by local artist-illustrators. This collection shines a spotlight on picture book illustrations, artist books and 'zines, celebrating them as art objects and showcasing the cultural narratives crafted by Texas artist-illustrators."
UTSA Libraries Special Collections plays a crucial role in the exhibition, offering a selection of rare books and 'zines. Steph Noell, special collections librarian, has been instrumental in curating these materials.
