The Circular Ruins

Based on a short story from 1942 by Jorge Luis Borges, The Circular Ruins is the sixth annual publication from the Virginia Printmaking Program. An evolving group of faculty, students, visiting artists, alumni and friends have been involved in these projects. Past portfolios have included The Labyrinth and The End of Language. The Circular Ruins was a project of some eighteen months, and has resulted in a bound volume of prints, poems and prose of about 200 pages. The edition is 25. The work on this project was collaborative in that on many pages two, three or more participants have worked together.
