Link to Entry Form

Book art and Artist Books of any form, material or size will be featured, from miniscule to huge. In addition, two-dimensional art with text as an integral part of the piece (not only a graphic element) will also be considered. This year the curator, Inés Monguió, is looking for 2D and/orassemblage work featuring text or representing a story that can be “read” by the viewer.

The Art of the Book exhibit features contemporary, traditional and unusual book art. This includes any three dimensional artwork that uses any book format (from tablets to codex) or a book as the base for the artwork. Two-dimensional artwork should include text as an integral part of its’ composition.

The juror will be Joe Cardella, of Art/Life limited editions. Art/Life was a monthly handmade art and literary journal that was published for 25 years. The journal is in the collections of many museums and collectors internationally. Joe is also an accomplished artist in many forms, including assemblage, sculpture, and photography.

Entries may be mailed, or delivered earlier to the curator. Please contact Inés at monguio@concentric.net for further information.
