Overview

Exit Art: Unfinished Memories: 30 Years of Exit Art is a 456-page resource on Exit Art's 200+ exhibitions, events, festivals and programs, featuring more than 2,500 artists, presented within the larger context of the art world. More than 70 eyewitness accounts and idiosyncratic recollections from artists, curators, critics and friends create a vivid sense of the exhibitions, performances, screenings, discussions, ideas and people that were part of Exit Art during its three-decade run.

Through the retrospective's design, I aimed to preserve as much source material as possible, including installation and event photos, pieces of ephemera, and original content from Exit Art's many publications, while ensuring that the energy, ingenuity, and humanity of founders Jeanette Ingberman and Papo Colo was properly reflected.
