Artists’ Books on the State of Democracy Artist highlight: “11033”, IBe' Bulinda Crawley (2022) “11033” is Crawley’s meditation on the feelings and experiences of Mary Morst, a black woman in the Virginia State Penitentiary in 1921. Imprisoned behind the black bars of the book’s cover, “11033” centers Mary’s complex life and shares her story as an imprisoned murderer and the mother of twin children born ‘behind bars.’ This sculptural artist’s book incorporates embedded copies of archival documents, including newspaper clippings, letters, and pardon applications alongside a fictional text woven poetically throughout the historical narrative. Organized by San Francisco Center for the Book, “Who is America at 250?”, closes this weekend in San Francisco. The exhibition will then travel to the @bostonathenaeum and @mnbookarts.
