Joseph Gallivan interviews Mary Weaver Chapin about artists books.

On July 23, 2013, at 11.3am Joseph Gallivan interviews the curator of graphic arts at the Portland Art Museum, Mary Weaver Chapin.

Weaver Chapin will talk about the artists books on display at "Artist & Book" at the museum through Sept 1.

 

Artists books are collaborations between artists, writers and publishers to create elaborate and beautiful collector's item books. Forms can range from circular pages in a movie reel canister to pop-up books to the more conceptual, such as text written on a pinwheel.
