(this course can be taken as a Graphic Design elective)
Learn the craft and conceptual foundations of book arts and artists’ books. An introduction to materials, form, binding and printing techniques, as well as conversations about and explorations of the book as an art form. Students will bind several sample books, experiment with a range of techniques for getting images and text into artist books, look at and discuss contemporary artist books and practices, and begin to develop visual work in the artist book form. The final project in the class will be an independent book project in which students synthesize their knowledge of materials and form with the development of a conceptual book idea. This course will also have some readings and visits to see artists’ books collections at Cornell University.
