Siganto seminar: the trouble with artists’ books

Join artist book maker Jan Davis, gallerist Noreen Grahame and librarian Helen Cole for a look at the artists’ book phenomenon in Australia, illustrated by books from SLQ and from their own collections.

Over the past two decades, there has been a boom in the production of artists’ books – where has this come from and what are some of the problems associated with the rapid expansion of the medium?

Following the discussion, enjoy afternoon tea and the launch of Hearsay, a large format collaborative artists’ book by artist Euan Macleod, printmaker Ron McBurnie and writer Lloyd Jones.

This event is proudly sponsored by the Siganto Foundation through the Queensland Library Foundation.
