Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this photography class:

Blending traditional and contemporary practice, join lens-based artist Susan kae Grant for an intense hands-on workshop exploring the art of handmade photographic artists’ books.

Starting with an introductory lecture Thursday evening, participants dive into this vigorous weekend workshop Friday morning – tapping into memories, personal insight, and intuition to inspire the content, design, and execution of personal photo book works.

A display of original artist’s books as diverse in style and direction as they are in technique is available each day to stimulate and illustrate strategies for design, sequence, and structure.

Class days include lectures, demos, guided writings, studio time and a one-hour lunch break. To visualize intent and sequence, Susan presents a guided writing exercise focused on photographs participants bring to the workshop. To facilitate creativity and materiality she shares 30+ techniques to physically incorporate images and text into handmade photo books. Hands-on binding demonstrations include the technical execution of a mini-mock-up and the multi-section open spine, French link-kettle stitch book.

Under the guidance of the instructor, participants will design and create a sample handmade photo book or mock-up utilizing the binding style and techniques demonstrated. Sunday culminates with an extended discussion of resources for production and inspiration. The workshop will conclude with group reflections and feedback on work created over the weekend.

This hands-on workshop is designed to provide awareness, techniques, resources, and knowledge of the genre of handmade photographic artists’ books and is open to participants with a new photo book idea or works-in-progress.

A supply list will be provided about one month prior to the class.
