The 2nd Artists' Book and Independent Publishing Fair


Hello again all.....

For all you budding artistic and literary types (we know you are out there kids!), here is a little something special. Obviously, its not exactly in the center of Brum, but Walsall is no more than a 15 minute train ride form town, so it's no excuse!

Peruse or buy your very own affordable books, zines, and multiples by artists and independent publishers across the UK and Europe, including: Books Works, Marbled Reams, Dent-De-Leone, EAK Publishing, Four Corners Books, Stephen Fowler, Simon Goode, Jatinder Kaur Bains, Variant, Wild Pansy Press, Carson & Miller, Alex Pritchard, Karoline Rerrie, Books About Nothing, Antepress, Basement Art Projects, Gandt, Trigger Editions, and colleges from around the UK.

Guy Begbie will be running a drop-in book making and binding adult workshop from 11am to 3pm, suitable for beginners. Materials will be provided.

Also at 2pm join Julian Warren, archivist at Arnolfini and Paul Clarke, member of the Performance Re-enactment Society for a free talk about The Cover of a Book is the Beginning of a Journey, an exhibition of artists’ books on floor 2.

Artists-in-residence a.a.s. will be responding to The Cover of a Book is the Beginning of a Journey by constructing new ‘performance scores’ from the exhibition material which they will perform with the help of visitors on the day.
Drop into the artist studio or contact mailto:aas@aasgroup.net if you would like to get involved.
