Description
Twenty contemporary artists and writers reimagine Corita Kent's iconic creative manifesto.
Known for her vibrant and powerful serigraphs, Corita Kent left an equally important legacy through her teaching. In the late 1960s, she and her students at the Immaculate Heart College developed their Art Department Rules. From "Consider everything an experiment" to "Be happy whenever you can manage it," these ten deceptively simple principles capture the magic of Corita's approach to creativity, culture, and activism. In this volume, ten writers and ten artists look back at the rules and show us how vital and resonant they remain today. The wide-ranging roster of contributors includes Vashti Harrison, Lisa Congdon, Natacha Ramsay-Levi, Dan Paley, and Erin Jang.

NetGalley had this available to read before the publication date. I've been a fan of Sister Corita Kent for years. Hearing from past students/colleagues who knew her or were inspired by her work/teaching was a delight. The paintings in the book are lovely. Highly recommended for writers and artists. I think it would be a perfect graduation gift. I want to buy a paper copy when the book comes out. Thanks, NetGalley and Chronicle books!
As a creative professional, I was drawn to this book because I recognized some of the quotes featured on the cover. At first, it seemed too simplistic or short, but don’t let that deter you. There are so many nuggets of wisdom and leadership in here, along with engaging art too. This would be a great gift for anyone in the arts of course but also product development, design, etc I may need a hard copy myself.
