Amplify Book Making Workshop with Robyn Thompson
About
This one-day workshop will introduce you to the artist book world, methods of collage & the art movement of pop art. We will look at artists such as Roy Lichtenstein, whose contemporary works on paper emphasise key words/statements & simplified graphic images. We will also utilise second and hard back books, as the title may provide a word or key phrase you wish to extend and express as an artwork. You will receive tutoring in making 1 completed artist book - concertina style. At the beginning, Robyn will give a demonstration of the use of hard back books (often discarded at your local library), to make one of two techniques shown: 1. Art journal or 2: artist book. Once you have chosen which style of book you want to make, in the second half of the workshop, Robyn will be available to assist participants with their works in progress. From the collages, experiments with book art and your chosen subject, these stories can be exhibited in several presentation styles, theme of 'Amplify'.Location
