Description
In 2009 the Grolier Club hosted an exhibition of Cuban artists’ books and prints (Libros y Grabados de Artistas Cubanos 1985-2008), focusing on the innovative work of Ediciones Vigía. Founded in 1985 by a group of imaginative young artists and writers caught up in the political, social, and cultural challenges of late twentieth-century Cuba, Ediciones Vigía produced (and still produces) elaborate and sophisticated handmade books, characterized by remarkable invention, poignant poetry, and technical mastery of print media, especially with found materials.
