Louise Odes Neaderland (born August 23, 1932) is an American photographer, printmaker, book artist and founder of the International Society of Copier Artists (I.S.C.A.) and the I.S.C.A. Quarterly, a collaborative mail, book art, and copy art publication. She was the organizer of ISCAGRAPHICS, a traveling exhibition of xerographic art.
Neaderland is an alumna of Bard College (1954) and received a Master of Fine Arts degree in printmaking from the University of Iowa in 1957. In 1952, she was awarded a Yale University Norfolk Fellowship in Printmaking. In both 1960 and 1962 she received fellowship awards from the Huntington Hartford Foundation. In 1986 she was awarded a National Endowment for the Arts grant for artists' bookmaking.
Neaderland began using the photocopier for making art during a residency at Women’s Studio Workshop in 1972 and received a residency grant from WSW in 1982. By the 1980s she had gained international recognition in the field of xerography. She is the author/artist of many xerographic limited editionbooks, some of which are still available to private collectors.
The art of Louise Neaderland is represented in Special Collections of MOMA, the Metropolitan Museum of Art,Getty Center, Brooklyn Museum of Art, Sackner Archive of Concrete and Visual Poetry in Miami, Florida, and Jaffee Center of Art Book Art. Her books are included in the book art collection at Harvard University Library and in the Sydney, Australia collection Bibliotheca Librorum Apud Artificem. More than a dozen museums and educational institutions subscribed to the I.S.C.A. Quarterly, helping to establish xerography as a legitimate and collectible art form. The Quarterly is thought to be the longest running international art assemblage project in the history of such collaborative projects. Examples of her book art and that of other collaborators in the I.S.C.A. Quarterlies book art editions are in the Special Collections and Archives of the James Branch Cabell Library on the Monroe Campus of Virginia Commonwealth University.
