Description:Exhibition catalog for Joyce Cutler-Shaw's exhibition "Episodes of the City", which took place at New York University from May 30-August 16, 2007. From colophon: "In this New York Odyssey, the artist is a migratory worker. Home is a portable loft. Growing up as a perpetual transient, moving from place to place, in a city ever in transition, while living within books and invented nature. Libraries, museums, and parks are havens, are temporary homes. New York is the source book for these Episodes of the City, which are vignettes of a life translated to words and images rooted in memory and the imagination." Presentation copy to Alexander C. at the Center for Book Arts, July 17, 2007. Limited edition of 1,500. Includes conversation with the artist, exhibition checklist, and artist's C.V.
