3-D Doings Book Launch featuring Ian Berry, John Corbett, and Jim Dempsey

Six years and every bit worth the wait, the giant catalog for 3-D Doings: The Imagist Object in Chicago Art, a 2019 exhibition at the Tang Teaching Museum in Saratoga Springs, New York, curated by Tang director Ian Berry and CvsD's Corbett and Dempsey. The book, which is bursting with color, interviews with living Imagists, and a cover sporting actual tufts of hair (!), will be on hand as the curators discuss the concept of the show and the artists in the book. A wonderful synchronicity with the current CvsD exhibitions, Aaron Curry and Nick Drnaso, both of whom are presenting work in the 3-D Doings lineage.
