How can our University’s archives and libraries inspire artmaking?  That is the question at the heart of Artists in the Archive,a collaboration among the U-M Arts Initiative, OVPR, the U-M Library, the Bentley Historical Library, the William L. Clements Library, and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.
Artists in the Archive connects U-M faculty engaged in creative practice with the archival and special collections housed in our on-campus libraries and archives, including treasure troves of photographs, diaries, maps, books, historical documents, musical scores, and much more. These collections are overseen by curators and librarians ready to help faculty sift, sort, categorize, and interpret materials that could become integral to the creation of your next painting, installation, performance, novel, or film.
