Description: Online exhibit of alphabet books by the Guild of Book Workers. Via text and photographs it showcases contemporary work in binding, calligraphy, and illustration.
is the Guild of Book Workers' biennial exhibit for 1998/99 and my first as exhibition chairperson. The alphabet theme allowed for the submission of a wide range of work in various formats and techniques. One wall piece and thirty-eight books were selected by our diligent jury. This show is an excellent representation of contemporary work in binding, calligraphy, illustration and artists' books by Guild members. When books have to be in vitrines, as in this exhibit, we lose the intimate tactile experience that comes with handling the work. In this catalogue you can feast with your eyes and use your imagination to visualize holding these wonderful books and turning the pages.
