This selection of exhibition announcements and invitations reflects the materiality of the art they promote through clever use of material, color, and form. Selected from the Vertical Files, which houses the National Gallery of Art Library's collection of printed ephemera, this compilation publicizing exhibitions by artists including Alexander Calder, Tony Smith, and Louise Nevelson provides unique insight into Post-War esthetics and the material culture of the art world.
