Explore the advantages of adhesive bookbinding for printed matter. During this 2-day intensive course, printmakers are invited to revisit an existing or curate a developing body of work for the visual book format. This course will be dedicated to model building of various single-sided structures such as the accordion, drum leaf binding, and Hedi Kyle's Storage Book that appear double-sided in the finished form. Throughout the binding demonstrations, we will consider proper material handling, the physical properties of Eastern and Western papers, and alternative soft and hard cover options for each structure. Students will use their own prints in combination with new materials to design and build a mock-up for an original artist's book. Demo materials and bookbinding tools will be provided. No previous bookbinding experience is required.
This workshop is limited to 8 participants.
