Join us for an artist talk in conjunction with Georgia Women to Watch 2026: A Book Arts Revolution, an exhibition celebrating the book as an artistic medium and featuring five innovative Georgia artists who are redefining what books can be.
This artist talk highlights the practices of the featured artists, whose work engages the rich history of bookmaking while exploring its vast structural, conceptual, and political possibilities. The Women to Watch exhibition series is a collaboration between Washington, D.C.’s National Museum of Women in the Arts and the Georgia Committee of NMWA.
Featured Artists: Eliza Bentz (Savannah, GA) Hannah Israel (Columbus, GA) Cynthia Lollis (Decatur, GA) Serena Perrone (Atlanta, GA) Eileen Wallace (Athens, GA)
Curator: Cynthia Thompson
