New in the Galleries
Ambroise Vollard: The Artist's Publisher
January 11 through May 29, 2011
Gallery of the Art of the Western World, first floor

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, Ambroise Vollard (1866-1939) promoted the work of modern artists through the production of luxurious livres d'artistes and limited-edition print albums. Look throughout the first floor gallery for prints by Toulouse-Lautrec, Vuillard, Bonnard, Cézanne, and Picasso that owe their creation to his vision.

Presented in conjunction with the Second Biennial College Book Art Association conference at IU, January 13-16. For more information: http://www.collegebookart.org/.
