Mindy Belloff produces fine letterpress printed book and broadside editions as the only private press in Manhattan, under the imprint Intima Press. She has been creating art for decades as a painter, photographer, mixed media installation maker, and book artist. Her works are in numerous permanent collections including the Library of Congress, the Victoria & Albert Museum, and the National Museum of Women in the Arts. Her mixed media artwork was favorably reviewed by Holland Cotter in The New York Times and she is a recipient of an NEA Book Residency grant. She holds a master of arts degree from New York University. Inspired by Stieglitz’s Intimate Gallery, Belloff opened Intima Gallery in upstate New York (2013-2014), which showcased fine books, photographs, and prints on paper. Her contemporary recreation of the Unanimous Declaration of Independence as designed and printed by Mary Katharine Goddard in January 1777, rewritten to proclaim “all People are created equal,” received a Puffin Foundation Grant supporting creative and innovative initiatives that advance progressive social change.
Mindy Belloff’s newest edition, “A Golden Thread: The Minotaur, A Contemporary Illumination,” is prominently featured in an exhibition at the Peabody Essex Museum titled, “The Creative Legacy of Nathaniel Hawthorne: Selections from the Phillips Library,” opening September 28, 2019 and on view through January 1, 2022.
