AAEL acquires WSW archive of artists' books


The University of Michigan Art, Architecture and Engineering Library recently acquired the complete collection of books published by the Women's Studio Workshop. The Women’s Studio Workshop operates and maintains an artists’ workspace that encourages the voice and vision of individual women artists, provides professional opportunities and employment to artists at all stages of their careers, and promotes programs designed to stimulate public involvement, awareness and support for the visual arts.

Here is a link to WSW searchable digital archive:

The UM archive of these books is housed in AAE Library Special Collections. Please contact me if you would like to make an appointment for you or your class to see them.
