About the Workshop:
This in-person workshop is taught by CBA instructor María Verónica San Martín.
This workshop will explore both the conceptualization and making process for developing artist’s books. The workshop begins with a contextual lesson on the book as an art medium, allowing students to draw inspiration for their own projects from published artists’ books. Then students will learn two binding structures—dos-a-dos and flag book—that they can choose between for their respective projects.
Subsequent lessons will cover printmaking topics like creating images by monoprint, woodcut, or collage techniques. At the end of the course, each participant will have created their own artist’s book. The class will conclude with a final critique and discussion of each student’s piece. This workshop is designed for all experience levels, though some previous book arts knowledge or experience is helpful.
Fun Fact: Artist have been creating experimental book forms full of beautiful and daring illustrations for centuries, however, contemporary artist books gained traction during the avant-garde period of the 1960s, with artists such as Dieter Roth and Ed Ruscha.
