Cause : Effect, A collaborative book project


Action and Reaction. Before and After. Then and Now. Rich
material for artists who work with sequence and pagination. The
Southeast Chapter of the Guild of Bookworkers invites you to
participate in Cause : Effect, a collaborative book project.

Production

Participants will edition two single sheets inspired by the
concept of cause & effect. Each sheet should have content
on one side only, and be intended to be folded in half. The
method of production is up to you. Potential techniques
include letterpress, digital printing, photocopy, a variable edition
of one of a kind drawings, screen printing. Any other method
of reproduction is welcomed and encouraged.
Completed folios should be shipped to SE Chapter Chair
Sarah Bryant, who will collate and ship all the responses back
to each participant for binding.

Binding

Participating members will bind their copy in whatever
method (and whatever order) they choose. Finished books
will be showcased on the SE Guild website. We hope to find
venues for displaying the books themselves if possible. (Get in
touch if you would like to host an exhibition!)

Requirements

Participation is limited to twenty artists. We are reaching out
to members of the southeast chapter first, then will broaden
our search nationally for any remaining spots. If you are
interested in participating, please fill out the attached intent
to submit form. Cost for participation is $25.
