Stewart Center Gallery, Purdue University, USA
6th March – 23rd April, 2006
This exhibition will feature fine-art prints in the form of bookmarks and artists’ books. “Bookmarks” is a multi-part project from The Centre for Fine Print Research at The University of the West of England, to encourage people to appreciate artwork in the book format and to visit artist’s book venues and libraries. The projects involve artists who work in the format of the artist’s book, each of whom generously produces an edition of 100 bookmarks for free distribution to the public. The display sets have already been installed in over 32 venues, with more than 90 contributing artists producing over 9,000 bookmarks since May 2004.
Artists publications also on display by:
Artgoes, Ian Chamberlain, Penelope Downes and Allison Sarah Halyett, Guy Begbie, Sarah Bodman, Ral Veroni, Mike Nicholson, Andrew Eason, Paul Etienne, Lincoln -Book Works, Eilis Kirby, Tom Sowden, Savage, Carinna Parraman, Paul Laidler and Magnus Irvin.
