About the Workshop:
This virtual class at Center for Book Arts is taught by instructor Amaranth Borsuk. The artist’s book emerges as an art form at the turn of the twentieth century as limited-edition collaborative books created by poets and artists from the materials at hand. It has proliferated for many of the same reasons as the chapbook, a small book of poems produced in limited quantities and distributed cheaply or even free of charge—as a way of sharing work outside the main publishing and art world economy and as a DIY approach to connecting with other like-minded artists. This interdisciplinary writing workshop explores the juncture between writing and the hand-made book. Through experimental writing exercises and hands-on bookbinding tutorials, students will consider the way a poem's form and content might be put into fruitful dialogue. Participants in the course will learn several binding styles (saddle stitch, flexagon, flag, etc.) and will attempt to write into and against these forms, perhaps creating new book structures of their own along the way.Required Materials:
-
Basic bookbinding Tools
-
Paper
- Glue
- Cutting tools
About Amaranth Borsuk:
Amaranth Borsuk is a poet, scholar, and book artist whose work encompasses print and digital media, performance and installation. Her textual/conceptual artists’ books have been exhibited widely and are held in a number of library collections. She received an NEA “Expanded Artists’ Books” grant for the collaboration Abra, a limited-edition artist’s book and free iPad and iPhone app that received the Turn on Literature prize for electronic literature. Her latest volume is The Book (MIT Press, 2018), a concise introduction to the book as object, content, idea, and interface. That work inspired her to gather definitions of the book from artists, writers, librarians, publishers, and booksellers, which she compiled into the anthology The Book: 101 Definitions (Anteism, 2021). She is the author of the poetry collections Pomegranate Eater and Handiwork as well as three collaborative books of poems including Between Page and Screen (Siglio Press, 2012), augmented reality poems created with Brad Bouse. Other digital collaborations include The Deletionist, an erasure bookmarklet created with Nick Montfort and Jesper Juul; and Whispering Galleries, a LeapMotion interactive textwork commissioned by Site Projects for the New Haven Free Public Libraries. Amaranth is currently Associate Professor of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences at the University of Washington, Bothell.
