Humanities and Social Sciences Library > Collections & Reading Rooms > Art & Architecture Collection > Collection Description The Pamphlet FilesThe Pamphlet Files were established as an original resource, part of the
Library's traditional and strong interest in the preservation of ephemera.
Some of the material in these files dates back to the late nineteenth century.
The Pamphlet Files are uncatalogued, and there are no references to them
in our online catalogue. In them one will find exhibition brochures, fliers,
small exhibition catalogues, gallery announcements, newsletters and other
ephemera relating predominately to New York City and State galleries, museums,
including those at colleges and universities, societies, foundations, and
other arts organizations. In addition, there are files for one-time arts
events and movements such as: "New York State Exposition" and "Art for Peace." The
Pamphlet Files are often the only record that a gallery or organization did
exist at one time. The list of entries are arranged in alphabetical order,
however, for galleries that have a given name and a surname ie. "Martha Jackson
Gallery," the entry will appear as "Jackson, Martha Gallery." [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] [H] [I] [J] [K] [L] [M] [N] [O] [P] [Q] [R] [S] [T] [U] [V] [W] [X] [Y] [Z] Harriet Burdock |
