World Book Night United Artists - Stories of and strategies for experimental, collaborative publishing

Bodman, Sarah

Abstract

Sarah Bodman reflects on 13 years of Bookarts at UWE Bristol's World Book Night (WBN) project; a text and image / artists' books-based event which has evolved from an initial collaboration with the artist and poet Nancy Campbell into an annual, international, participatory celebration of reading and creative making. Inspired by our shared interests in literature, poetry, artists' books and mail art, WBN introduces ourselves and other artists/writers to particular books and ways of working together.
