Bridge Journal - Volume 20/1 or Volume 21/1

Regular price $25.00 Sale

Whether you’re interested in contemporary architecture, poetry, urbanism, theory, or visual art, you can find them all in Bridge Journal.  This independent Chicago journal was founded to nurture and promote contemporary inter-disciplinary artistic practices and is rooted in the vanguard publications of the past.

With editor Michael Workman at the helm, each edition of Bridge Journal is a meticulously designed, hardcover volume filled with beautiful images and intriguing dialogues about the relevance of art in our time and its power to be expansive, provocative and cooperative.     

We are offering a limited number of copies of Bridge, in conjunction with Bridge editor Michael Workman's lecture at the Museum, tracing the legacy of PAN — the 19th century avant-garde art and literary journal on display in our galleries — to Bridge and other contemporary art publications.
