The Morgan Library has received a $1-million grant from the Homeland Foundation, Inc. for a project under way with Princeton University's Index of Christian Art to catalogue and digitize the Library's entire collection of medieval and Renaissance illuminated manuscripts. These manuscripts, which represent a thousand years of Western iconography, will be available for the first time in Internet-accessible databases.

For the first time in New York, The Morgan Library & Museum will present an exhibition entirely devoted to this aspect of the artist's work. Josef Albers in America: Painting on Paper, on view from July 20 to October 14, features approximately eighty such studies spanning the four decades after the artist left Nazi Germany and immigrated to the United States.
