Dieu DonnéPapermill: 15 Years

An exhibition showcasing fifteen years of collaborations in handmade paper

In this new year, 1991, Dieu Donne celebrates its fifteenth anniversary as a hand papermaking studio where artists and artisans have collaborated side by side to produce innovative and u nique works of art. We would like to present, in this exhibition, at the Center for Book Arts, a selection of current projects in book and paper along with those produced over the years.

Support for the Center for Book Arts’ visual arts programming is provided, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts, with the support of Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature, and by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
