Event detail
Where the Pavement Ends by Holly Beth Herbert
A Book Art Exhibition curated by Louise Atkinson
Set within the confines of a domestic living space, Time and Space examines new book works created in response to nostalgic associations of place and memory, alluding to the obsolete, discarded and lost.
The show includes work by national and international artists, across the breadth of book art practice, exploring the book as a time-based medium in various forms, including sculpture, found objects, audio, tactile and conceptual.
Contextualised within a living room environment, the work also functions to question how we curate our own private spaces, how we present ourselves and what we choose to reveal to, and conceal from, the outside world.
This environment also affords the audience the opportunity to fully appreciate and experience contemporary book works, while allowing them time and space to reflect on their own associations and memories.

Opening night a roaring success

Last night I attended the fabulous grand opening and private view of this new gallery based in headingley, Leeds. The artist book exhibit in particular was really interesting. The owners of the gallery put on a really fun evening that was packed to the rafters!
