{"value"=>"<p>Materials related to Remy Charlip's World: Books into Theater/Theater into Books, Charlip's career-spanning exhibition at the San Francisco Public Library in 1999, comprise this subseries.</p> <p>The bulk of the subseries consists of forty-three 22.5\" x 32\" panels created by Charlip that were displayed in the exhibit. Panels typically feature thematically-linked content, and each contains Charlip's handwritten descriptions on the front and back. The panels contain a variety of items from throughout his career, including fliers, posters, and programs he designed; photographs of dance performances; Air Mail Dances choreography; and book covers. Also present are two panels with costumes designed by Charlip for the Merce Cunningham Dance Company (oversize folder 29), and five panels featuring Charlip's t-shirt designs for the Dancers for Disarmament program (oversize folder 31). Other costumes and t-shirts are in series I. Some materials on the panels, specifically fliers and programs, are duplicated elsewhere in the collection.</p> <p>In addition, this subseries holds Charlip's poster designs for the exhibition, budget and financial notes, early correspondence, the initial proposal, and press clippings about the event. An eight-foot-long sign bearing the exhibition name is included as well.</p>"}
