Catalog for the ARTSpeak 2012-2013 Open Book: Conversations on Art and the Book exhibition which took place from April 3-29, 2013 at the Gladys Marcus Library of the Fashion Institute of Technology. A checklist of items is included. "This catalog is the end product of a collaboration between Fine Arts and Art History and Museum Professions students at FIT, in conjunction with the ARTSpeak 2012-2013 interdisciplinary program...The theme for this year's ARTSpeak series is Open Book: Conversations on Art and the Book, and it was agreed early on that an appropriate corrolary to the panel discussion and series of guest artist lectures would be an exhibit of work by Fine Arts BFA students who responded to the traditions, trajectories, and possibilities of artists creating books. Eight semester Art History and Museum Professions majors were asked to view student work and write the texts for this catalog, which accompanies an exhibition of student work on view at the FIT Library from April 3-29, 2013." - Introduction
