PROJECT:
A group of artists residing in Texas were invited to participate in Railsmith's
Collapse of the Home collaboration project. With support in part from the Austin
Community Foundation, and the City of Austin Cultural Funding Program Railsmith
produced two limited edition, hand-printed lithograph pop-up books.
Each book is a collection of several versions of the same pop-up house, printed from
lithographs submitted by various artists. The final signed and numbered editions of the
hand-bound volume were distributed to contributing artists, sponsoring foundations, and
local Austin charities.
On September 26th 2009 a special opening event was hosted at SlugFest Printshop in
Austin TX, to celebrate the completion of the project. The books were also on
display at the International Print Center of New York, Opening Oct. 29th through mid
December, and at the Leonard Pearlstein Gallery at Drexel University in Philadelphia
during Philagraphika Print Fair from January to mid March 2010.
This project is funded and supported in part by the City of Austin through the Cultural Arts Division and by a grant from the Texas Commission on the Arts and an award from the National Endowment for the Arts, which believes that a great nation deserves great art.
