Book & Paper Arts Workshops
Folded Not Sewn / Variations on the Accordion Book (Blaine, WA)
A few simple folds and you have a book. A few more folds and a judicious cut or two and you have an entirely different structure. From the concertina to the gallery book, this course will give students the opportunity to make a wide variety of accordion books such as reverse folds, basic pop-up books, gallery books, tunnel books, flag books, meandering books and several books that do tricks. Instruction the first day of class will cover basic forms and work techniques. Ample time will be given for students to study samples and make models of the books and covers. The second day students will work with a text and create mock-ups of a variety of layouts and formats. The instructors will facilitate private and group critiques of these rough drafts and students will be encouraged to created a finished book during the last day of class.
