[ART] One of Buffalo’s many little-known secrets is that UB’s Poetry and Rare Book Collection is an absolute trove of 20th century publishing. Though they have many accession from earler periods, few libraries in the world match UB’s collection of modernist texts, and and display of some of their most unique pieces is being launched. Whether it’s a napkin, a shoe, or a roll of toilet paper with each sheet imprinted with Cindy Sherman’s lipstick, a curious history of book-making will be on display for the collection’s opening reception on Wednesday October 28 from 6 until 8pm. The show will stay on view through January 15.
