Henri Maccheroni: study for ‘Trêves et rêves. Jérusalem’

In the context of the international colloquium ‘Les Espaces du Livre: Supports et acteurs de la création texte/image (XXe-XXIe siècles)’, held at Trinity College from 6-8 September, an exhibition has been installed in the Library’s North Front Corridor display cases, offering a mise en scène of text and image spatialisation through a selection of three artist-books by Henri Maccheroni: Trêves et rêves. Jérusalem, (Truces and dreams. Jerusalem), La partie de peinture (A game of painting), and Robert Rovini’s La chauve-souris (The bat).

 The exhibition runs in the Library’s North Front Corridor until Saturday 12 October, during normal Library opening hours.  Members of the University holding a Library reader’s card are welcome to bring up to two visitors at a time to see the exhibition.  Members of the public who do not hold a Library reader’s card may be able to make an appointment to gain access to the exhibition area.  For further information e-mail exhibitions@lib.cam.ac.uk or telephone 01223 333055).
