Lisa Nebenzahl

Lisa Nebenzahl ’79 is featured in the McKnight Book Artist Fellows exhibition. This fellowship is offered to mid-career artists through a partnership with Minnesota Center for Book Arts and the McKnight Foundation.

Nebenzahl's project, The Chico Poems is a suite of eight poems contained in a custom-designed case. This project was inspired by her mother Chico Nebenzahl (1916-2000), who penned the poems in the early 1940s. With the support of a McKnight Fellowship for Book Artists, the project took a year to produce as she employed the light of the sun to create the cyanotype prints in the spring, summer, and fall of 2021.
