A video series from Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (BIMA) explores the unique artform of artist’s books. What is an artist’s book? Simply put, they’re pop-up books. A fairly recent trend in the art world, Artist’s Books are a fast-growing art form that the public is beginning to notice. BIMA’s goal is to help make this unique medium more visible and accessible. These three-dimensional art objects are usually one-of-a-kind or in limited edition and are used to reveal a story over time using a combination of content and form, including drawing, painting, printmaking, collage, gluing and binding, sculpture, photography, textiles, and creative writing, along with the storytelling. Videos featuring a new work will premiere on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month at 11am on the BIMA YouTube channel or BIMA Facebook videos page. Videos are archived at BIMA social media for viewing anytime after their premiere. More info: Artist’s Book Collection – Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (biartmuseum.org)
