Date

Description

"In 2016 Hand Papermaking celebrated its 30th anniversary. Throughout the year, 15 collaborations were underway in studios worldwide. Established paper artists who were active in the field around the time Hand Papermaking was founded were invited to team up with emerging paper artists who were born around the time Hand Papermaking was founded. These 30 individuals partnered as equals to explore the interdependence and reciprocity of a constructive relationship between generations. Our intergenerational experiment sought to consciously de-emphasize didactic mentor/student dynamics in favor of a creative melding of unique and vital perspectives in contemporary paper. The finished paperworks convey the spirit of youthful energy interacting on equal footing with the wisdom of experience. Each pair of artists determined how to express these concepts visually through their work in paper. A custom-made clamshell box houses the work, each in a protective folder imprinted with the artists' names. A handbound booklet, with letterpress-printed cover, contains statements from the artists, details about each piece, and a commissioned essay by Tatiana Ginsberg."--Publisher description.
Contains an introductory volume plus 15 specimens of handmade paper, each laid in white paper folders.
"This edition is limited to one hundred and fifty, and two Hand Papermaking archive proofs.--Colophon.
