Hello Fellow Folders! You may have heard last week about the upcoming origami exhibition at The Cooper Union which we are organizing. It is titled Surface to Structure: Folded Forms, and more information can be found on our website, surfacetostructure.com
We are paying homage to the first origami exhibition in the United States, which was in 1959, organized in part by Lillian Oppenheimer, at The Cooper Union, also where the upcoming exhibition will take place. We wish to display origami folded by the artists featured in that 1959 exhibition. We are reaching out to the origami community in search of archival works by the artists listed below. Akira Yoshizawa Giuseppe Baggi Martin Gardner Ernst Hacker Ligia Montoya Robert Neale Robert Harbin Samuel L. Randlett George Rhoads Jack Skillman Miguel De Unamuno If you are willing to loan works by the listed artists please email [email protected] Your participation will be deeply appreciated. Many Thanks Uyen Nguyen (The Cooper Union) Curator Co-Advisors: Sok Song (Creased, Inc.) Patsy Wang-Iverson (Vice President for Special Projects, Gabriella & Paul Rosenbaum Foundation)
