HEADS, TAILS, AND SPINES: BOOK ART FROM CCA STUDENTS exhibition documentation

Book art can range from a simple zine to a unique altered book, a folded piece of handmade paper to a handcrafted and letterpress printed edition, and everything in between and beyond. Visual imagery may be generated through photography, illustration, graphic design, textile, and printmaking techniques and may feature poems, stories, and research. Students from all majors come together to learn how to make books in two classes offered by the Printmaking Program at CCA: Bookworks; and Papermaking and the Book. The exhibition highlighted selected book art created in classes taught by Alisa Golden and Rhiannon Alpers during the spring semester of 2017
