Exhibtion Bookshelf: Red
June 6, 2013 7-8:30pm

The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts and Left Bank Books invite you to explore the power of color by participating in this one-of-a-kind book club. Discover how authors use color while you, as a reader, are surrounded by Donald Judd’s multicolored works within the contemplative spaces of the Pulitzer galleries.

 Books to be discussed are: Autobiography of Red, a novel in verse by Anne Carson; Fun Home, a graphic memoir by Allison Bechdel; Bluebeard, a novel by Kurt Vonnegut; and Configurations, a collection of poems by Octavio Paz in Spanish and English. Donald Judd’s philosophy of art will inform discussion topics. Local scholars will lead each session.

 Left Bank Books (399 N. Euclid Ave.), St. Louis’ preeminent independent bookstore, will offer book club titles to participants at discounted rates. Visit pulitzerarts.org for the full schedule.
  Contact Philip Matthews, programs coordinator, at pmatthews@pulitzerarts.org or (314) 446-2057, to join the book club.
