catherineldfI realized that I forgot to mention that I bought a lovely artist's book at the Antiquarian Bookfair on Friday. Then I decided that I would just do a post on Jana and her colleague's work. Pretty pictures!
I am starting with Jana, seeing as she's my wife and all. Here is the design she just won a big award for. You can see more of her work on her blog, About the Binding and on her website.
Her Jekyll and Hyde remains one of my big favorites:
On Friday, I bought a lovely little book from our friend Jody Williams of Flying Paper Press:
Jody does lots of tiny books and boxes, often with scientific themes.
Our friend Karen Hanmer does books on themes ranging from Poe to early women aviators to computer code and, of course, Carmilla:
Emily Martin of Naughty Dog Press works with more whimsical subjects, like pie and quirky mysteries and her dog. Her website is down at the moment so I'm linking to another site with her work.
These are just a tiny sample of the fabulous work that women are doing in bookbinding and artist's books in just this region. Check out the faculty bios at the Minnesota Center for Book Arts for more.
