The Artist’s Book Yearbook was established in 1994 by the contributing editors: Tanya Peixoto, John Bently, Stephanie Brown and Stefan Szczelkun continuing to be published on a biennial basis. The Yearbook arose from their collective passion to offer book artists an opportunity to read critical essays by writers and artists, to gain an overview of artist’s book production and most importantly to encourage greater discussion and awareness of book arts, particularly in the UK.

As the publishing editor,

under her Magpie Press
imprint until 1999 when she went on to set up bookartbookshop
in London, a fantastic place to see and buy a huge selection of artists’
books.

The biennial publication includes essays and information on many aspects of the book arts, artists' listings, information on book arts galleries, archives and collections, book arts courses, events, journals, bibliographies and reference publications, studios and websites, with book arts contributors from around the world. |
