Opening Event for Readymade Emanations: Trianon Press and the Art of Tearing Apart

October 17 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm PDT

Free

UC Santa Barbara Library invites you to the opening reception of Readymade Emanations: Trianon Press and the Art of Tearing Apart, an exhibition examining the legacy of Trianon Press, a 20th century fine art publisher based in Paris founded by visionary Arnold Fawcus.

Working with talented artisans, Trianon Press perfected a painstaking technique of reproducing original artwork by building many hand-stenciled layers upon a photographic collotype. Among the most notable achievements of Trianon Press were the publication, in partnership with the William Blake Trust, of a series of facsimiles of the works of William Blake, as well as renewal of interest in the work of Marcel Duchamp via the grand-deluxe edition of his catalogue raisonné, “Eau et gaz à tous les étages.” This exhibition invites viewers to consider the relationship between reproduction and illumination.

RSVP Here.

The Trianon Press Collection, generously donated by Dean & Kim Pananides, is one of the newest additions to the UC Santa Barbara Library’s Special Research Collections.
