Since 2022, The Holland Project has been a beneficiary of the Santa Fe, New Mexico-based non-profit publisher Radius Books‘ expansive donation and education program, which donates 350 copies of every book they publish to libraries, schools, arts organizations, and community centers in all 50 states and Puerto Rico. Now with a collection of dozens of Radius Book titles in the HP Library, we selected fourteen and prompted regional artists to do a deep dive and respond to these incredible sources of inspiration.

Participating artists hail from across Nevada, including Abbay Anderson, Kelly Chorpening, Mark Combs, Matthew Couper, Christian Davies, Sam Ganados, Skylar Jory, Tiffany Lin, Brian Martinez, Emily Najera, Edgar Padilla, Ika Pearl, Andie Pereyra, Cesar Piedra, Luke Rizzotto, Alejandra Rubio, and D Stevens. Radius publications featured Tarek Atoui, Julie Blackmon, Debi Cornwall, Debbie Flemming Caffery, David Goldes, Ted Larsen, Deborah Roberts, Howard Smith, John Sonsini, Vincent Valdez, Cecilia Vicuña, Cameron Welch, Alex Yudzon, and others.

Each artwork in Cross Reference is guided by a Radius book while simultaneously reflecting each artist’s own practices and aesthetics. As part of the installation, books and art are displayed together, allowing viewers to make connections and explore the collection.
