SUMMARY:Opening celebration of "AP Gorny: Different from the Rest"
DESCRIPTION:Central Library is pleased to host the opening of the new Rare 
 Book Room exhibit\, AP Gorny: Different from the Rest. Light refreshments 
 will be provided\; the curator and artist will be present to talk about the 
 exhibit.\n\nAbout the exhibit: \n\nThe Rare Book Room of the Buffalo and 
 Erie County Public Library is honored to acquire and exhibit a selection of 
 artist books and prints made by Anthony Peter Gorny\, or AP. Printmaker\, 
 photographer\, sculptor\, bookmaker\, performer — none of these 
 definitions truly capture AP as an artist. A graduate of SUNY Buffalo State 
 University and Yale University’s School of Art\, AP’s artwork is in 
 over 50 institutional collections\, including the Vatican Library\, the 
 Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, and the Library of Congress. \n\nThough many 
 of AP’s professional accomplishments extend far beyond Buffalo\, he is a 
 product of this city. AP was born into the insular Polish communities of 
 Buffalo in the mid-twentieth century. When he finally ventured beyond his 
 neighborhood\, the expansive cultural experiences available to him in 
 Buffalo helped shape the artist he was to become. Using oral histories\, 
 digitized materials from Buffalo's cultural institutions\, and the artist's 
 own work\, the Library's Special Collections department has woven the 
 disparate pieces of this artist's career to show an artist formed in a 
 specific place and moment\, working outside established channels to create 
 a world for himself. \n\nThe exhibit AP Gorny: Different from the Rest will 
 showcase recent artist book acquisitions for the Library's Rare Book 
 department by AP\, as well as never-before-seen archival documentation and 
 video footage made available through the digitization efforts of the 
 Grosvenor Room. \n\n \n\n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n
