"Rivus" by Lisa Nebenzahl
Faculty member Paula McCartney and Lisa Nebenzahl ’79 have been chosen as recipients of the inaugural McKnight Book Artist Fellowship.
Marcia Reed, a juror for the award, notes that both McCartney and Nebenzahl have “affinities to nature and geometry,” likening Nebenzahl's photographic sculptures to crystals. She describes McCartney's books as “invitingly designed… mov[ing] back and forth from recording nature, then witnessing, or even occasionally creating the man-made interactions.” The bonus, she adds, is her humor.
