Developing the Artist's Book: Techniques and Procedures

Last year Eddee Daniel and Max Yela offered a series of workshops on the concept and practice of making artist's books. These new workshops move from the conceptual to the hands-on production of bound books. Participants will be introduced to techniques and procedures for developing an artist's book project. Specific skills and techniques will be discussed, including simple stitching for hand-made books; sewing on tapes and simple case-binding; and the basics of self-publishing a digital, print-on-demand book.

Attendance at last year's workshops is not required; a brief overview of artist's book concepts and principles will be included. Each of the sessions below may be taken separately.
