Books: The IKB Library.
Books: The IKB Library.
One of life’s greatest pleasures is being surrounded by books—the more, the better. At IKB, we have been building a library since we founded our office. A single shelf-full along the back wall of a tiny office shared by John Ike and me our first year in business, the library has grown steadily to thousands of volumes.
Fantastic exhibit, and a good book to accompany it.
Today begins our two-week series featuring objects and works which make up Rosemarie Trockel’s imaginary universe in “A Cosmos”, ending on January 20.

In our current exhibition “Rosemarie Trockel: A Cosmos,” you can see a giant lobster, drawings of plants, and glass sculptures of jellyfish alongside Rosemarie Trockel’s work. In “Natural History,” the artist Aimee Rankin made a her own giant diorama at the New Museum in 1985.
