The bell rings, school is out for summer, but you're heading straight to the library to pick up your summer reading list. Sound familiar? The famous list was designed by American schools to keep children engaged in reading throughout the summer, including classics like "The Secret Garden", "Of Mice and Men", and "A Wrinkle in Time". Some titles have even raised concerns among parents and others that students are being exposed to material that is overly grim. For the 20 participating artists in "Summer Reading List," now on view at Arch Enemy Arts in Philadelphia, these books are not only a part of their childhood, but continue to provide their artwork with inspiration.
