Description

"I was invited to be a visiting artist at the University Of The Arts in the book arts/printmaking department and spent my time in the Borowsky Center for Publication Arts where I created an artist book in an edition of 500. The book was printed by master printer Lori Spencer on a Heidelberg KORS one-color press. Five different colors required five individual press runs for each side of the interior pages of the book. The cover required four press runs, double-sided. Twenty percent of the edition was kept by the UArts and I instructed a group of graduate students in the assembly process. One hundred books in the edition are reserved for installations. http://www.amaustin.com/ba.htm (accessed 9/8/15)"
