Nut II - Celebrating the Female Artist Community

NUT II Book Launch

March 24th, 2018 4-6P

at A.I.R. Gallery (155 Plymouth St, Brooklyn, NY)

Please join us at 4pm on March 24th, at the historic A.I.R. Gallery for the launch of NUT II.

NUT is an all women’s publication devoted to celebrating and fostering the female artist community. The project takes its name from the Egyptian sky Goddess who, every night, swallows the sun and births it anew, performing the perpetual cycle of life and death. The impetus for NUT was a desire to harness personal traumas into positive outcomes as a process of healing and renewal.

Our goal is twofold: first to give form to a beautiful collection of great art made by women, and second, as a means of raising funds to support women globally. All proceeds generated by NUT are donated to the Global Fund for Women, an international organization whose mission is to “find, fund, and amplify the courageous work of women who are building social movements and challenging the status quo.” More info: www.globalfundforwomen.org

The book’s 5 x 7 in. format features a collection of 64 detachable high-quality prints of works on paper by women artists. A limited edition will be available for purchase at the launch and subsequently via www.nutpublication.com and anteism.

Ken Carbone Curiously Curious Journals

The importance of artist journals and sketch books 

Journals are one of the most important tools for an artist/scientist/musician... to slow down and capture inspiration. The ideas generated may not be ready for development but can be re-discovered at a later time. The Curiously Curious journals of Ken Carbone are a perfect example. After witnessing the private journals of Paul Gauguin, Carbone began creating journals for his ideas and the happenings around him. Carbone uses a basic store bought journal and transforms the book by adding a leather cover which he customizes using leather dyes.
