Description

"'Worldwise' by Linda K. Johnson, the recipient of the 2003 Library Fellows artist's book grant, juxtaposes visually and historically rich nineteenth-century maps with ancient proverbs from all corners of the earth. Thirty-two proverbs from cultures as diverse as Australian Aboriginal, Yiddish and Tibetan are presented in four small folded-book sections against a backdrop of old-world maps. The assembled book is a circle within a square, the circular shape of the case representing the world and the four book sections its four corners. Each of the four maps opens to form a four-point star and closes to a square that is housed in one of four compartments of this circular case." This Volume in the artists' book series published by the Library Fellows of the National Museum of Women in the Arts to benefit the museum's Library and Research Center. Begun in 1989, the series is made possible by the creativity of artists and the enthusiasm of book lovers and collectors.
