Exhibitions + Libraries + More - Aug 29, 2011

I am happy to announce two upcoming exhibitions that will include books from Onomasticon. A selection of books will be on display at the Photographic Resource center at Boston University as well as the Chicago Cultural Center, Chicago Rooms. I have added the exhibitions + collections page to share information about exhibitions that include Onomasticon. Additionally I have started a list of the the subscribers/collections that are acquiring Onomasticon.

Unfortunately I have had to make an adjustment to the additional shipping costs for international orders. Shipping costs have exceeded my estimates from the time the project was announced over a year ago. These new prices are now include on the ordering and subscriptions pages. All subscriptions are the same price, international orders require an additional shipping charge.

New books are on the way.
