Today Renaissanceera prints are typically preserved behind glass or in solander boxes in museums, but these decorative objects were once a central part of everyday life. Altered and Adorned is a delightful, surprising look at how prints were used: affixed on walls; glued into albums, books, and boxes; annotated; handcolored; or cut apart.This handsome volume introduces readers to the experimental world of printmaking in the mid15th and 16th centuries and the array of objects it inspired, from illustrated books, sewing patterns, and wearable ornaments to printed sundials and anatomical charts. It features many neverbeforepublished treasures from the Art Institute of Chicago's rich permanent collection, along with essays on the ways prints functionedin some cases as threedimensional and interactive worksand how their condition communicates their use.Distributed for the Art Institute of ChicagoExhibition Schedule:The Art Institute of Chicago(04/30/1107/10/11)
