Gallery Exhibition | "LA Biblioteca"About the Exhibition
LA Biblioteca: Artists' Books from Los Angeles/Italia is an exhibition of thirty-two handmade, or produced, artist's books by eight artists from various parts of Italy, and eight Los Angeles-based artists. In the title, the presence of the Italian word “Biblioteca", translated in English to mean ‘library’, alludes not only to the participation of Italian artists but also to contents related to Italian culture, also present in the works of the American artists. Also, allude to by the title, the ‘LA’ is an article with a double meaning: not only is the article suitable for the term library in Italian meaning ‘the’ in its feminine form, but it is also the acronym of Los Angeles (LA), the county hosting the exhibition.
