New rules next week: Corita Kent's legacy through the eyes of twenty artists and writers

"Known for her vibrant and powerful serigraphs, the artist Corita Kent left an equally important legacy through her teaching. In the late 1960s, she and her students at the Immaculate Heart College developed their Art Department Rules. From "Consider everything an experiment," to "Be happy whenever you can manage it," the ten deceptively simple principles capture the magic of Corita's approach to creativity, culture, and activism.

The rules remain as resonant today as they were when first created by Kent and her students. In this volume, ten exciting contemporary artists have each illustrated one of the rules, while ten writers provide insights into their meanings, showing us how vital and vivid these creative guidelines continue to be in the twenty-first century"--.
