Shveima Associates worked in concert with the Interpretive Programs Office of the Library of Congress to provide exhibit design services for “Jazz Singers” which offers perspectives on the art of vocal jazz from the 1920s to the present. Drawn largely from the Library of Congress Music Division’s collections, including the photographs of William P. Gottlieb and the papers of Max Roach, Chet Baker, and Shirley Horn, among others, it features singers and song stylists from both on-stage and off.
The exhibit opened in Washington, D.C. at the Library of Congress Madison Building’s Performing Arts Reading Room Gallery. After six months it was repackaged for display at the Ira Gershwin Gallery located in the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, California.
