CBS This Morning Saturday, July 4, 2020 the Goddard Declaration
CBS This Morning Saturday with reporter Dana Jacobson did a lovely segment on Mary Katharine Goddard, with historian Martha King, and my re-creation and re-writing of the “Unanimous Declaration of Independence” (2008-2010). Here’s hoping for a more equitable Union in 2020. Happy Independence Day!
A Golden Thread: The Minotaur – Video from Intima Press
Mindy Belloff produces fine letterpress printed editions under the imprint Intima Press, as the only private press in Manhattan. She has been creating art for 40 years as a painter, photographer and mixed media installation artist, and 25 years as a book artist. “A Golden Thread: The Minotaur, A Contemporary Illumination,” is her newest tour de force edition. Featuring the text of the classic Greek tragedy, “The Minotaur” by Nathaniel Hawthorne (1853), it remains a spirited read as it comes to life through unique typographical designs and 100 original drawings. Each page is meticulously letterpress printed in multiple press runs with an elegant color palette. The volume inspired an exhibition at the Peabody Essex Museum from the Phillips Library, which was on view through March 2020. An award winning book, “A Golden Thread” was judged among the best in show at the 2020 Fine Press Book Association Fair. It was beautifully reviewed by Michael Ryan in the most recent Parenthesis 37 Journal of the Fine Press Book Association, and by Barbara Basbanes Richter, of the Fine Books & Collections Magazine. “A Golden Thread” is limited to 32 standard and 8 deluxe design bindings (two of which are shown in the film).

The Creative Legacy of Nathaniel Hawthorne: Selections from the Phillips Library Collection
Featuring A Golden Thread, by Mindy Belloff, Intima Press, text of The Minotaur, by Nathaniel Hawthorne from Tanglewood Tales, 1853.
This is the first exhibition in a new gallery dedicated to showcasing works from the museum’s research library. Nathaniel Hawthorne is integral to Salem’s rich history, and PEM’s Phillips Library collection includes over 3,000 individual volumes by the author. The library’s recent acquisition of Mindy Belloff’s A Golden Thread, a contemporary reinterpretation of Hawthorne’s short story The Minotaur, considers the links between past and present, visual and verbal, and how artists have drawn on one another’s work throughout time. Focusing on the visual artistry of bookmaking and printing, from cover designs to typography, this exhibition highlights the full creativity present in books as art objects.
