Closure

Bodman, Sarah L.

Abstract

An artist’s book about the end of a love affair between a flower arranger and a plane spotter. Made for ‘weloveyourbooks’ Closure exhibition, May 2009. Also shown in the exhibition DIY(Visits Chicago): Photographers and Books, September 18—December 7, 2013, Center for Book and Paper Arts, Chicago, USA. The Center for Book and Paper Arts mounts a second iteration of an exhibition exploring print-on-demand photo books. Originally curated by Barbara Tannenbaum for the Cleveland Museum of Art, DIY: Photographers and Books (2012) was the first museum show to focus on the impact of print-on-demand publishing on contemporary photographic practice. This is a juried exhibition focused on photobooks that move beyond the monograph. How do photographers engage the book form in ways that are experimentally visual and conceptual, while pushing the possibilities of print-on-demand publishing? Jury
