Description: "American Women in Art: Works on Paper" brings together 31 artists whose common bond is the achievement of national recognition - some from early on, others after a lifetime's work. Selection was based on two criteria: that the artist be very distinquished and that the work be of great diversity. "An American Album" features 360 small works by women artists from 34 states in the United States. These two exhibitions were held concurrently with the United Nations World Conference on Women in Nairobi, Ienya, in 1985.
