This collection includes almost 5,000 minor exhibition catalogs and pamphlets for 3,331 individual artists published 1918-2004, with the bulk published from the 1950s-1970s. The collection highlights American, Canadian, Dutch, French, German, and Italian artists along with numerous other nationalities. Artists of Slavic origin are well-represented through catalogs that were provided to the Library through the Library of Congress PL480 Program. Many of the catalogs were published to accompany exhibitions held in galleries located in major art centers worldwide such as New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Paris, London, Milan, Montréal, Munich, Amsterdam, to name a few. Information contained in the catalogs often includes a portrait of the artist, education, chronology, catalog of works, works in private collections, awards, one-man shows/exhibitions, group exhibitions, and bibliography. Exhibition checklist and pricelist sheets are included in many of the catalogs.
