As New England Book Artists passed its 4th anniversary, we continued to celebrate both the book arts and the community we’re building together. This was the second venue for this traveling exhibition.
Just as artists’ books vary in content, media and bindings, Building Books 2 presents a range of interpretations on the themes of structure, architecture, public & private spaces, reality & fantasy, libraries, engineering, drafting, bookbinding, the handmade, the maker, connections, conceptualizations, personal narratives, home and so much more.
