SUMMARY:Folded Fan Sculptural Artists’ Book: A Vehicle for Imagination\, Experimentation\, and Play
DESCRIPTION:The California Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers presents: \nA workshop led by Debra Disman\nSaturday\, June 5\, 2021\n1:00 – 4:00 pm\, Pacific Time\nPresented live via Zoom \nThe “Folded Fan Book\,” Debra Disman’s personal name for this fun and versatile book structure\, is comprised of\nan accordion spine\, two covers\, and full size pages which “fan out” when the book is opened.\nThis structure can be treated as a traditional codex or built into a sculptural form limited only by the \ningenuity\, creativity\, and innovation of the maker. \nStudents will gather their own materials based on the supplies list provided and determine the size and content of their books\,\ninspired by examples of different ways this structure can be developed\, reimagined\, and used. \nWe will spend the first part of the workshop creating the basic structure\, then take off into unexplored territory\nwhere students can utilize their chosen materials to transform their books into personal explorations of their own histories\nor potential futures. Will YOUR BOOK become a container of memory\, visualization of an intention\, a container of dreams\, an excavated artifact?\nWhatever participants choose to create\, this book can become a vehicle for imagination\, experimentation\, and play. \nMaterials: Participants will supply and source tools and materials. The use of existing materials in your living/work space is encouraged.\nA list of supplies will be sent one month before the workshop. The Zoom link will be sent the week of the workshop. \nSkill Level: Open to all levels of experience \nRegistration: $50.00 USD for GBW members\,\n$60.00 USD for non-members.\nPlease register by May 15\, 2021. The workshop will not be recorded.\nThere is a cancellation fee of 10% of the registration fee up to 30 days before the workshop. No refunds are given for\ncancellations made within 30 days prior to the workshop. Registrations may not be shared and are non-transferable. \nPlease direct questions to\ncalifornia@guildofbookworkers.org. \nDebra Disman is a Los Angeles-based artist working \nprimarily in the form of the book\, both as a solo \npractitioner and in the public sphere of community \nengagement. She creates work and projects which \npush the boundaries of the book into new forms and \nmaterials.
