Event Content
Over 365 days, 1,340 books arrived at Winsing Art Place’s bookstore from around the world.
Winsing Art Place Book Selections 2019-2020 marks the second exhibition of the series since the bookstore launched its collection initiative. It features nearly 300 carefully curated titles from a year of new acquisitions, including architects’monographs that sell out immediately upon publication, first editions of seminal architectural treatises, and firsthand accounts of architecture and art that have reshaped eras. Spanning the 1950s to the present, the exhibition invites visitors to trace the conceptual origins of captivating contemporary architectural spaces. This exhibition will foster creative reading through salon discussions and reconnect design thinking with imaginative possibilities through speakers’ book-centered dialogues. The opening salon will feature eight speakers from the architecture and art worlds, each bringing a selected book to share the stories and visions it evokes.
